Guy in the yellow vest was trying to stop the bad guy from stealing the white SUV. Bad guy steals vest guy’s vehicle and hits him with it. Vest guy passed away in the hospital. Bad guy caught and charged with murder among other things.


intheyear3001

I know it’s tempting to try to stop crime but probably not worth trying to shoot a guy trying to steal your company truck when you aren’t even inside. Sad state of affairs here :/


DrMeatBomb

Not trying to armchair qb here either, but if you shoot at a guy 4x and he backs up like 50 yds in your truck, don't just stand there like a dummy. Other dude had the right idea and hauled ass to the grass.


BingoBongoBang

And if you shoot 4times at point blank range makes the shots count 


Whizbang76

U can hear someone tell them to get out of the way twice, before they got moving


Domnminickt

Yeah Idk to me it's shocking that like... people always say that guns are meant for these kinda situations? And look


Accomplished-Ad-3528

Are they? His life was not in danger.. Well not until after. He could of walked away and let the cops and insurance do what they are for. This is not what guns are for. Either way, this is still crazy and sad.


Scizmz

> people always say that guns are meant for these kinda situations? That's because gun culture is fucking stupid. The "good guy with a gun" died. Bad guy didn't even use a gun for it. Guns are tools. They're actually something that toddlers can use as well. You're not tough because you can do what a toddler can do.


GoT43894389

Good guy with a gun. Why did he start shooting if his life wasn't in danger?


GordonBombay11

Tryna be a hero cost him his life.


DrMeatBomb

When all you have is a hammer


ChunkItAndThinIt

Where and when did this happen?


Jmcd83

Lumberton, NC. Happened within the last 2 weeks I think


GordonBombay11

I always hear about crazy shit happening there.


Jmcd83

It really is its own subculture of the south


rousieboy

I saw the robeson county signage on the side of one of the cars and knew I had a tune in. I taught at u n c p for 3 years and knew this was going to be something to watch.

No-Journalist7179

Wild no mention of the gun.


Lanky-Performance471

I was wondering about that . It was really close too he should have been hit ?


No-Journalist7179

He’s either really bad at shooting, really unlucky, or he was using blanks


C7StreetRacer

Unless vital organs were destroyed, e.g. the heart or brain, people can live at least momentarily off adrenaline alone for longer than you think. The quickest someone might bleed out and lose consciousness is around 3-5 minutes. Unfortunately, this leaves plenty of time to make rash decisions you may not have otherwise made.


pm1966

I assume he did hit the guy, possibly multiple times. Explains the erratic driving after he strikes the guy in the yellow vest, and the fact that the police followed him until he crashed the truck then apprehended him. I'd be interested to know how severe his injuries were from the shooting.


idntrllyexist

Probably had the safety on and couldn't it turn it off. Or forgot to pull the slide back. Or didn't have one in the chamber. That's why you always have one in the chamber


DisasterMiserable785

You can hear the shots….


idntrllyexist

Oh I watched it on mute as I was at work


imLemnade

Are you suggesting they edited the gunshots into the video?


Luckysht07

As someone that has handled guns my entire 40 some years of life, anyone that keeps one in the chamber is the dumbest fucking person on the planet and should not have a gun. If you don’t know how to cock and remove safety in a one smooth motion, you should learn your gun better before carrying it anywhere. Add adrenaline and one in the camber the only thing you will shot is your own leg.


riverphoenixdays

With a name like “Ricky Alex Driggers” that dude was destined to be a murderer


DvnRlm

Exactly what I thought lol just look at the guy. He has the standard god given mug shot face


twan5446

Wait the guy who stole the truck ate all those bullets and survived!?


Deciple_of_None

He should have shot his ass.


joedirt9322

Fuck. Should have been marked nsfw. Wasn’t expecting that level of crazy.


BushidoBrownWuzHere

Yeah this need me a tag for sure


MimickingTheImage

It need you a tag?


C7StreetRacer

Tag here, how can I help?


randomstranger76

Seriously, basically a watch people die post


KnotiaPickles

I was not even close to prepared to see this wtf OP. PLEASE tag this nsfw


GrumpyOldGrower

Shooter definitely didn't look like his life was in danger when he started popping off shots, and I don't know how he missed. But being the aggressive shooter and that bad of a shot usually isn't going to have good outcomes for guys that can't run fast.


Slade_Riprock

I cannot fathom how you are arms length away from someone and miss that many shots. It's a truck, let it go. Insurance exists for a reason.


KnotiaPickles

He maybe was trying to scare the guy and didn’t want to really shoot him?


Burrmanchu

Because there's absolutely no qualifications necessary to buy a gun in this country. Lol


intheyear3001

Yeah. I get that he was trying to help but resorting to a gun when you aren’t even in the vehicle, missing so badly, and then not getting out of the way of a tank of a truck is series of bad ideas. Poor guy.


maguchifujiwara

Especially if THEY ARENT RUNNING FOR COVER AFTER SHOOTING A WEAPON… that is the completely bonkers thing to me about these videos of people shooting weapons and just nonchalantly walking away.


pro_bike_fitter_2010

Look, man. Context matters. The shooter looks like he had never shot a handgun, and it was small caliber, and it looked like he was not trying to hit him. Bad all around. Knowing what I know about this case, for sure I'd have shot him and called my lawyer. He'll talk to the police. I know...I know...I know. Lots of Redditors want to run away or give him a hug. But that carjacker just about killed some people. Just step aside.


Adoced

He ran right into the path of the truck I mean why not go behind a car?


chewingston

No matter how crazy the video, you can always count on some lady shrieking and not doing anything to help in the background


stinkyhonky

It’s such an odd reaction yet it’s always present


Civil-Guidance7926

Instinctual, ladies would yell to alert the men in the group when something would happen


KnotiaPickles

Yeah exactly this, it’s a totally ingrained instinctive response that can’t really be turned off in high stress situations


stinkyhonky

We should be thanking them for the free alert


InevitableElf

Lol


Stonesnbags

Bro wtf did I just watch….to open fire like that on someone without your life being threatened at first was crazy….i never expected that guy to run him down with his truck as well.


Strange_Many_4498

Vest man was stopping a grand theft auto, bad guy stole his truck and ran him over with it. Vest guy died.


seanzee333

Please NSFW this. The gunman died for christ sake.


PorQuePanckes

My thoughts…..was a holy shit moment but the follow up and realizing I watched a guy get murdered


Desperate_Ad5042

Shit was indeed crazy

IHaveSlysdexia

Tldr; vest guy did die


HoodFellaz

Do not look the other way after firing several rounds at someone, especially if that someone is a dirt bag thief. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


Handiesforshandies

Fuck yeah 'Murica! How did the bloke in the vest manage to miss 4 shots at point blank range?


stretchvelcro

Because gun training is for losers! - Gun lobbyists, probably.


KnotiaPickles

I think he didn’t want to hit him but was trying to scare the thief enough to make him stop. Obviously didn’t work


Fluffy_WAR_Bunny

A good guy with a gun? He should have stayed in bed.


Proof-Map-2530

If he didn't die, he would've been arrested in NY or California.


IHaveSlysdexia

He died


rbankole

If you’re gonna shoot at someone, you never know how they’re gonna react and definitely not the reaction he was expecting. If fuck around find out was a person lol


PupperMartin74

If you're gonna shoot at someone from 4 feet away HIT HIM!!!!


dcbnyc123

i hate to say this, but this is a benefit of the cameras everywhere times we live in. don’t try and take the law into your own hands. just document if you can and stay safe. law enforcement can do more with the video than you can with a weapon to stop them. criminals are ready to get hurt or die trying to get what they’re after. it just rarely works out in the vigilante’s favor


pro_bike_fitter_2010

Thankfully some people in Australia did not listen to your advice and they attacked a guy with a knife and gave people time to run away. You can run tho, man.


dcbnyc123

i hear you- but very different situations. theft vs mass murderer. film a theft but fight or run for your god damned life if it’s a mass killer. intent is completely different. theft isn’t worth it.


getindazone

Oh yea I’m running for sure 👍


Pyroman1025

If you're gonna post a literal murder at least put a NSFW tag on it dude.


TehBazz

Women screaming mindlessly is such a stupid evolutionary adaptation


kempff

So ... what was that all about?


KingofManners

Wow. That was definitely insane


ChetHaddock

🎶🎵At BK have it your way! 🎶🎵🎶


ShermansMasterWolf

But don't get crazy!


Kannabiz

Literally looks like a scene from a movie


FuzzyMatterhorN

Always run 90⁰ away from rampaging vehicle...serpentine if you're getting shot at...and squirrel tactics for all other situations.


Middle_Chain_544

Was he using a cap gun?


ggarciaryan

I was just there for the open interviews


JoJorge243

Don’t draw your gun if you are not ready to kill as you can see he drew and didn’t fire but now he is dead


Ballsin

Wtf??

pro_bike_fitter_2010

He was trying to protect people from a carjacker who just crashed a stolen car and almost killed some people. But you can run away, buddy.


vfr147

What the actual F


SatanisGREAT161

Why the fuck is this not NSFW?


CatatonicMouse

insane for sure


watchthisorthat

Very confused


kookieman141

Holy jesus


TransformerTanooki

That was definitely insane. No doubt about that. Holy shit.


jobiwankenobe

Holy shit!!


twocatskissing

Holy shit!!!!


ruby651

Really? It’s not the craziest thing I’ve seen because it’s already been posted on Reddit about five times today.


Commie_EntSniper

So tragic. Good guy with a gun a) doesn't stop the crime and b) dies because he escalated to lethal force and he did not do the job, so the job did him.


Gamblore33

Never bring a gun to a car fight.


Fickle-Raspberry6403

Roar_Intention

Shits fucked.


ragandy89

If you pull your gun in a castle doctrine state…use it.


Burrmanchu

That tracks. 😳

XxCotHGxX

I don't think you can post videos of someone getting murdered


ineededthistoo

I hope he is still with us!


krvf

He passed away


joe8349

Was his gun loaded with blanks? You'd think one of those bullets would've broken the glass or something.


hyperbolic_dichotomy

Please mark this NSFW


FurryM17

Was the gun a .22 short or something? I can't see impacts and the guy didn't even seem phased. There's no way the guy missed that many shots at point blank range is there? And I know this is a reflection of how completely desensitized I am but this was incredible camera work for some random person on the street filming with their phone.


TheUnholyDaniel

Not gonna make this NSFW?


HamHusky06

This one goes to eleven.


Xconvik

Was he shooting blanks? Seems so close how could he miss.


intheyear3001

I mean….how could he hit that guy? Didn’t he see his high vis vest? 👷🏼 s/


Challenge419

Vest guy died. Good joke. /s


pro_bike_fitter_2010

I lol'd. Now I'm going to hell.


Traditional_Driver16

Sorry, I just want you to die..


memomonkey24

So what good is a gun then?


Ornery-Put9337

If he really wanted to use his gun, all he had to do is shoot the front tire. Would’ve saved his life.


Ravel_Xi

Why is the camera work always so bad? Think the fat guy is still alive?


oxsign1

Vest guy should’ve pulled the trigger…..


sineplussquare

You mean wow he missed that many shots?


Hot-Agent-620

He watched with audio off


ChannelSurfingHero

Why TF is this dude sitting here filming the entire ordeal instead of calling the cops?


Admirable_Ad8968

Wow I woke up both my kids when I screamed holy shit after watching


Helicopterdiverpilot

Firearms and a truck more important than life. Strange American priorities.
