I suppose that's where he drove off to.Hopefully to go to the police station...or they wouldn't have known his name...
Is there some legal obligation, when you're under assault, to inform your attackers that you are armed with a gun? Here's my take on it: If two guys are beating me and they are lucky enough to notice that I have drawn my weapon and am preparing to fire, and they take that opportunity to turn and run like hell before I pull the trigger, I probably won't shoot. However, if they are too preoccupied with the beating they are trying to dish out to notice, I'll just consider the loud 'bangs' and the holes I put in them to be ample 'notification'.
The reason I bring this up is that the narrator seems to make a big deal that the defender informed his attackers that he had a gun and they still didn't back down. I've heard that before, but I wonder if that's what really happens or is that what your lawyer tells you to say that you said when describing the incident to the police? And does this really matter?
