Armed mother saves 2 year-old from kidnapper

[JohnPierce]

Yesterday morning a Fresno California woman came face-to-face with every mother’s worst nightmare. Just after 8:30 in the morning, a man wearing a ski-mask invaded her home while she and her child were inside. But the horror doesn’t end there. The man was there with a goal. He wanted her 2 year-old daughter.

This story is eerily similar to a 2003 kidnapping in San Jose California which I wrote about at the time. In both cases, the mothers fought fiercely but were ultimately beaten by the kidnapper. In both cases, the kidnapper grabbed the child despite the mother’s best efforts. But that is where the similarities end.

Thank God that woman did not have to press the trigger.

If she had, a whole lot of other kids would be safer!

Ah fres"yes". I will not be surprised to hear about spencers and PRK arms selling out of HD guns after this. As for the mother good for her, I would not want to get between a mother and child. Especially one with a shotgun.

Another firearms story with a "good" ending. Might be the safest ending for the child so that's was what she ended up doing. She certainly showed a lot of restraint IMHO.
