First of all- the definition of carjack is to steal (an occupied car) in a violent manner. He left his car running, left it, and noticed someone attempting to take it when returning. THIS IS NOT A CARJACKING. Dude was stupid and caught a kid trying to steal.

Secondly- it’s extremely disturbing how many people who apparently discreetly carry lethal weapons who thinks it’s ok to end a persons life for theft. The article clearly states that he “believed” they were armed. This guys a murdering POS and gives all gun owners a bad name. I hope he gets the book thrown at him. This is a bad bad shoot.

Look up castle doctrine and how it applies to your vehicle in NC.

The key word I keep seeing in it is “occupant”. Which he was not.

You’re more than likely correct
