Quick-Thinking Clerk Ends Armed Robbery Attempt in Alabama
SHARE

A knife-wielding alleged robber met his match early Sunday morning in St. Clair County, Alabama, when a store clerk armed with a firearm stopped the attack.

As reported by Breitbart, Around 4:30 a.m., 44-year-old Timothy Jones, from Hale County, Alabama, entered a Shell gas station with ill intent.

However, his alleged robbery attempt ended fatally when the armed clerk intervened.

Shell gas stations throughout Peoria like this one at 4310 Knoxville Avenue are hoping for approval to sell beer and wine.

Authorities confirmed the incident remains under investigation, and the clerk’s name has not yet been released. St. Clair County Sheriff Billy Murray stated, “The St. Clair County Criminal Investigative Division is investigating [the] incident.”

According to AL.com, Jones was shot in the course of what appeared to be an armed robbery attempt. The defensive use of a firearm highlights a growing trend of law-abiding citizens using their Second Amendment rights to protect themselves and others from harm.

While the left often downplays or outright ignores the defensive use of firearms, statistics paint a different picture.

On February 19, 2015, Breitbart News reported that Florida State University criminology professor Gary Kleck reaffirmed his findings of at least 760,000 defensive gun uses (DGUs) annually in the United States.

This research, which first gained national attention in 1993 through the National Self-Defense Survey, has withstood scrutiny despite efforts from gun control advocates to discredit it.

Professor Kleck’s work remains a cornerstone in the debate over the real impact of firearms on public safety. The numbers don’t lie: armed citizens save lives.

Critics of the Second Amendment often sidestep these statistics, but cases like this Alabama incident serve as a sobering reminder of the importance of self-defense rights.

While the mainstream media may focus on isolated incidents to push an anti-gun agenda, the silent majority of defensive gun uses often go unnoticed.

Thankfully, in this case, the store clerk was prepared, and lives were potentially saved because of it.

With the investigation still ongoing, the outcome may offer further insights into how defensive firearm use plays a critical role in deterring crime.

One thing is clear: when law-abiding citizens exercise their rights responsibly, they serve as the first line of defense against criminals who wish to do harm.
