NEW DELHI: A private security guard showed exemplary courage and helped cops nab three snatchers on Tuesday night.
The guard, Kamlesh Kumar, 37, was attacked by the snatchers while he was on his way to work at the DJB office in Tikri village. The snatchers, identified as Sher Khan, Wasim and Mohsim, came on a bike and ambushed him. The guard shot at them in defence, injuring one of them in the left foot, while the other two here hit on the right foot. They were later arrested by the outer district police.

I think NAGRI should maintain a data base of such incidents where a legally armed person averted a crime.. as there is too much negative publicity done by the media when it comes to gun ownership and maintaining such a data base would help us counter them
