Hypothetical situation, but one that I can see as possible:
You are in a bad part of town and are being followed by a group of 3 men. You pick up the pace a little bit, but they keep in step. You turn to address them (ask if they need something or whatever just to try to understand their intentions), and one of them pulls a knife (or any weapon) as his accomplices "encourage" him. You draw and give a warning, but the individual rushes you and you are forced to fire. The threat is stopped, but his accomplices still remain at the scene, and you don't know if they are armed or not.
Obviously, you call 911 immediately, if possible. But what would you do with your weapon, how would you handle the "accomplices"?
Sorry for the drawn-out situation, but being threatened by a group of individuals is one of my "worst-case scenarios" and I am curious as what the best way to handle this would be.
