14 times even with a 9mm i'm supprised he could even run away. Good on the property owners for defending themselfs.
drugs...or a bad shot. said he fired that many times, not "hit"

either way, hat's off to the store owner for protecting him and his.

He even had a spare mag. +1 on that.
I have a spare mag, but I don't carry it everywhere. I guess it just depends on where I'm going. But then again maybe I should have it because you never know.
spare mag is more important for the possibility of a failure than actually using the extra rounds. even so, multiple BG home invasions and gangs make the possibility of firing a large number of rounds a growing possibility.

Very good point. Carrying extra ammo isn't always because someone's paranoid - things always seem to go bad at the worst possible time. It's sometimes easier to drop a mag and reload when a FTF happens than to mess around with it.

He also could have hit him in non vital places like a hand his rear (think Forrest Gump).

I also wonder what type of ammo he was using, FMJ vs. hollowpoints. FMJs tend to make holes but sometimes take some time before incapacitating.
