Police: Bar patron shot Plymouth homicide suspect
BY BOB KALINOWSKI (STAFF WRITER)Published: September 11, 2012
An armed patron stopped a gunman's shooting rampage early Sunday outside a Plymouth bar, shooting the suspect multiple times on East Main Street after he fatally shot one man and critically wounded another, arrest papers revealed.
Investigators said the suspect, William J. Allabaugh, 25, shot a man in the head inside Bonnie's Food and Spirits just before 2 a.m., then fatally shot another customer outside the 133 E. Main St. pub.
When Allabaugh pointed his semi-automatic pistol at another patron, the man, Mark Ktytor, pulled his own gun and fired multiple rounds at Allabaugh, according to arrest papers. The shots dropped Allabaugh to the ground and left him with critical injuries, police said.

Since it only makes the major news outlets when a rampage goes unchecked - I thought I'd post a reasonably positive outcome of what can happen when you start one out where other armed citizens happen to be.
Too bad he got as far as he did before he ran across one.
Theres not many days that go by where I dont think about getting my CC license.
I think I may look into moving some operating budget into my defense department after this years holiday spend-a-thon is over.
About time a privately owned gun scored one for the good guys...
Had quite a few in St. Louis unnoticed. More prevalent news covers the stories. Usually you hear about them in the corner store newspapers. Thats why I like posting articles from The Evening Whirl.

Provides a real-world justification for concealed carry in bars/restaurants that serve alcohol as well. Plus one for the good guys this time. Sorry the perp got two victims, but it could have been a lot worse.

Forgot to mention that "Hong" and "staff" were used in the same sentence.
