Pahokee Mayor Says Someone Tried To Shoot Him

[AWorthyOpponent]

Had a few moments free today, and got to see the local news, where they had a fairly interesting story.

Mayor J.P. Sasser said he was returning home from a commission meeting shortly after 10 p.m. when a gunman shot at him multiple times.

What they don't mention in the story here (but did in the televised version) is that the mayor had a CCW and immediately drew it. The display of the firearm alone was enough to have the gunman flee, without any further shots being fired. The mayor is known for his anti gang violence agenda and said that protecting yourself from them is the most important step.

Ambush, 5 shots, and no hits? That doesn't sound right to me, unless the shooter has cerebral palsy.

IF that was the case, was the perp dumb enough to leave behind casings with fingerprints too?

I wonder why they did not mention his CCW gun in the above story?

( As if I didn't know )

5 shots at him and he didnt return fire?

I wanna read the police report on this one.
