Last words uttered by Atlanta armed robber:
[BLAZE] "His car was parked next to mine. He got out of the car, said, ’Hey bro! Don’t move!’ [and] pointed a gun at me. I pulled my gun, and I shot," he added.
A Georgia man told police that he thwarted an attempted armed robbery after pulling his own gun and shooting the thug who allegedly threatened him.
Hapeville police released a panicked 911 call from the victim after the shooting at the Atlantic Aerotropolis on S. Fulton Ave. on April 15 at about 9:30 a.m.
“Hey, I just had to shoot somebody in the top floor of the parking deck,” said the man on the emergency call obtained by WSB-TV.
The man said he was walking from the apartments to his car when he was confronted by the armed man.
“His car was parked next to mine. He got out of the car, said, ‘Hey bro! Don’t move!’ [and] pointed a gun at me. I pulled my gun, and I shot,” he added.
After he shot him, he noticed there was another man in the passenger seat of the suspect's car. The victim ran into his apartment and called police to tell them about the incident.
While he was worried that the second man might follow him into the apartment, police say the second suspect ran away from the scene.
Police later identified the suspect as Alton Coleman and arrested him after seeing him allegedly urinating in public at the church.
Coleman was charged with murder and aggravated assault, and records show he has a lengthy criminal history. The man who was shot and killed was identified as 39-year-old Lando Carter.
Having worked the Hapeville, GA. / Atl Airport (Fulton County, GA) area in the past.
YES! It is a common-armed robbery crime scene area. Mainly due to a lot of incoming and leaving airline passengers. Which are usually not thinking of their surroundings.

Witnesses said they saw the man run toward a nearby church. Police later identified the suspect as Alton Coleman and arrested him after seeing him allegedly urinating in public at the church.
Coleman was charged with murder and aggravated assault, and records show he has a lengthy criminal history. The man who was shot and killed was identified as 39-year-old Lando Carter.
WSB was also able to confirm that Carter had been released from prison only a year prior to the robbery and his death. He had served a 15-year sentence for interference with commerce by threats or violence and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime of violence.

Probably black-on-black, but this time the good guy won.

Calculate the cost of prosecution alone for such a Ne'er-do-well and give the shooter a reward for saving the taxpayers money and solving a problem the state previously failed to fix.
[RadarOnline] A woman on Kamala Harris' Secret Service team was suspended this week and once sued the city of Dallas, Texas, for alleged gender discrimination and wrongful termination, RadarOnline.com can confirm after reviewing court documents going back to 2016.
Michelle Herczeg, 43, reportedly got into a physical fight with fellow agents at the Washington, D.C.-area Andrews Air Force Base on Monday morning, before the vice president touched down on her way to Wisconsin.
When she arrived as part of the detail for Harris' trip, the agent "began displaying behavior" that her "colleagues found distressing," Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi told The Washington Examiner, which did not name Herczeg.
The newspaper reported that the agent was handcuffed after becoming "aggressive with other agents." Guglielmi said she was "removed" from her assignment and medical personnel were called to the scene.
RealClearPolitics identified Herczeg by name and reported that she was taken off duty after "physically attacking the commanding agent in charge and other agents trying to subdue her."
Herczeg was armed but did not draw her weapon, and colleagues disarmed her after she allegedly "tackled" and "assaulted" a senior agent, the report said.
The outlet spoke with a Secret Service rep and other unnamed sources from the agency, who claimed Herczeg was acting erratically.
The insiders said she was mumbling to herself, hiding behind curtains, and throwing objects at her colleagues while telling them they would "burn in hell and needed to listen to God."
Psychotic break?
They also said she snatched a shift leader's phone and deleted several apps.
Before joining the Secret Service, Herczeg was a member of the Dallas Police Department. She started in 2008 and rose to senior corporal in 2015.
According to court documents, Herczeg filed a lawsuit against the city of Dallas in December 2016, claiming she "suffered discrimination and retaliation because of her gender" in a "hostile work environment."
[FOX] A legal immigrant who became a U.S. citizen in 2021 said Wednesday he was "flabbergasted" that illegal immigrants who were flown to Martha's Vineyard are considered crime victims.
Some of the 49 migrants sent to Martha's Vineyard by Florida officials in 2022 may be given the right to work and at least three have been given work visas. Their attorney has claimed Florida officials "tricked" the migrants into boarding the planes from Texas.
The visas, designated for crime victims, are known as a "U Visa," "Fox & Friends First" host Todd Piro reported.
"According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U visas are set aside for, quote, victims of certain crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and are helpful to law enforcement or government officials in the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity," he noted.
"It seems like our country, what America was known for, which is the rule of law, is changing right before our eyes, Alma Ohene-Opare said in response.
[Red State] As RedState has reported in numerous articles (see "RELATED" at the bottom), the Biden administration has been wrestling mightily with whether or not to ban menthol cigarettes since 2021.
As has been the case with most, if not all, of Joe Biden's decisions, a proposed ban on menthols has been less about the potential public health benefits of banning mint-flavored cigarettes and more about the potential fallout in both the Black and Hispanic communities.
According to a Wall Street Journal analysis of data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, roughly 81 percent of Black smokers smoked menthols in 2020, along with 51 percent of Hispanic smokers, compared to just 30 percent of white smokers.
In other words, it's all about the votes.
Hence, as the Journal reported, the administration was expected to announce on Friday that it is delaying a decision on whether to impose a ban, contending that it needs more time to consult with outside groups on the matter — with no set timeline to revisit the decision, as the November presidential election looms closer and closer.
[MAIL] Political analysts say Joe Biden's handlers will be panicking after the 81-year-old president agreed to debate Donald Trump in the run up to November's presidential election in what appeared to be an unplanned comment.
Speaking during a softball interview with Howard Stern on Friday morning, Biden said he is 'happy' to take the stage to debate his 77-year-old rival.
It quickly led several Republican accounts mocking Biden's decision and that it was beyond his 'handler's control'.
'Crooked Joe Biden says he's 'happy to debate' President Trump. His handlers must be furious,' RNC Research, an account managed by the Republican National Committee tweeted.

There was a time, youngsters, when Howard Stern would rage against the machine instead of hiding in his basement and being a face for politicians. That he was selected to play softball with Brandon shows the fall.
And you iconoclasts thinking that is a high-five moment, you would be wrong.
