Member Center:
Mayor Bobby BrightDespite recent criticism, Montgomery Mayor Bobby Bright says he still recommends that citizens fight back against crime with guns. And it appears that at least one man is following the mayor's advice.
Police say the man was moving his belongings from one vehicle to another Thursday night when two other men approached him. That's when the man went for his gun.
Several shots were fired. And in the end, the man got shot twice in the thigh. But the mayor says by getting his gun, the man did the right thing.
"I want to thank him and encourage him and others to continue their fight for their protection and the protection of others," Mayor Bright said.
The man's injuries were not life threatening. As of Saturday, police were still looking for the other gunmen.
