One suspect is dead and another hospitalized after a robbery attempt in Cobb county Thursday night.

According to Cobb police two men approached a husband and wife arriving home on Glasgow Road shortly after 8:30 p.m. The men were armed with handguns.

The husband was also armed and he and the two men exchanged gunfire.  All three were wounded.

The husband was taken to Kennestone Hospital and is expected to recover.  The wife was not injured.  One of the suspects was also taken to Kennestone.

The second suspect managed to flee the scene and later showed-up at Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta for treatment.

Might have ended differently if he wasn't armed. Like two victims found dead from robbery.

I don't think that couple should be allowed to get away with that....if I were the judge, I'd sentence them to thirty days at Rob Pincus' house for "rehabilitation".....  8)

Could happen anytime, anywhere. Although wounded, it certainly could have been far worse for him and his wife.

The BG's??? Too bad....Especially for 1 of them.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Heck, with home invasion on the rise in this area, and instances like Alf posted closely following that, I carry even when I go to the john.......you never can tell these days.


About 6 months ago, down in the Valdosta area, two guys approached a man mowing his yard and robbed him at gunpoint. This crap is everywhere....and the lame-stream media wonders why decent people want to arm themselves.
