Subject: Shoplifter injured in Atlanta…
** Orville Smith, a store manager for Best Buy in Augusta, Georgia, told police he observed a male customer, later identified as Tyrone Jackson of Augusta, on surveillance cameras putting a laptop computer under his jacket. **
**When confronted the man became irate, knocked down an employee, drew a knife and ran for the door.
Outside on the sidewalk were four Marines collecting toys for the “Toys for Tots” program. Smith said the Marines stopped the man, but he stabbed one of the Marines, Cpl. Phillip Duggan, in the back; the injury did not appear to be severe.
After Police and an ambulance arrived at the scene Cpl. Duggan was transported for treatment.
The subject was also transported to the local hospital with two broken arms, a broken ankle, a broken leg, several missing teeth, possible broken ribs, multiple contusions, assorted lacerations, a broken nose and a broken jaw…injuries he sustained when he slipped and fell off of the curb after stabbing the Marine.
Love it, nothing like jungle justice. Our brave men in uniform protect us wherever they are. They deserve our respect and thanks for their dedication to our country. Next time you see a soldier, thank them, it’s the least you can do. And to all veterans who are members of InterNACHI, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
The Cpl. must have been in D.I. Training. They are very gentel until the reqruits touch them, then they tend to go ape s**t.
BTW: Here is a photo of my Navy Daughter during here spring break trip to Israel to play with her little IDF and Australian Army friends. She is the one in the red coat.
She starts here last year that the Naval Academy in June and will be the Exec of her company. The youngest reports to Parris Island in July.
I was stationed in Israel for the Gulf War…Man you do not want to mess with IDF and the Mossad. Want to talk about a bunch of cohesive people! Touch one you might as well have offended them all. Was a great short tour. Great country, very nice people.
