Female Hotel Clerk Shoots & Kills Robber/Rapist

Good for her and her employer for allowing her to be armed at work. Her being allowed to carry saved her life.

+1 to the employer. Too bad she had to be previously victimized to recognize the importance of being prepared.

One thing can be said for the shooter: She don't like to waste ammo. One shot, one kill.

Glad she came out of it safe and hope she doesn't have too many problems coming to terms with taking a life.

I was driving through Columbia, SC today returning from Myrtle Beach. Radio story about a female hotel clerk who shoots her attacker...happened early Monday morning. Score one for the good guys/gals and the .22 caliber. Link to the story below.

I keep encouraging my daughter to carry at the ER where she works...several nurses do.....

I'll bet that Vincent didn't know that he would be "Checking Out" at the Days Inn that morning, before breakfast. Good for her!

Think of the future victims she spared from this waste of human anatomy. Not to mention the thousands of taxpayer dollars she saved the state by expending a single .02 cent round.

I hope she doesn't drop into depression for taking a persons life. She needs to remember that what she did saved her life.

Great ending to a bad situation. A big thanks to Days Inn of whom many years ago I also worked for and they were gun friendly back then too.
The woman who carried and actually had the chance to use it I applaud. This guy deserved what he got.

This could have been a lot worse than it did, glad she is OK.

But I dont think it was a 2 cent round! I don't know about you guys, but my carry rounds cost over a buck a pop!
