A man managed to fight off two armed assailants in Philadelphia while being shot twice.
Video from nearby buildings recorded a 46-year-old man fighting off two armed attackers in the early afternoon on Monday. The attempted muggers fled the scene in a dark SUV after the man managed to wrestle a gun from one of the attackers and fired upon the other.
The video, obtained by the Daily Mail, shows one assailant walking down a sidewalk. Another camera angle is then shown of the victim struggling with the assailant over a gun as the two collide with a stop sign before falling to the pavement.
The second assailant is seen running from across the street as the victim and the first attempted mugger struggle on the ground over a gun. The second assailant pulls a gun and appears to look for an open shot. For a moment, the victim is able to hold the first assailant between himself and the second before gaining control of the gun and exchanging fire with the second attacker.
The two men exchange fire as the second attacker drops to the ground, apparently shot. The first assailant is seen fleeing the scene as soon as he loses his gun.
The two attackers fled in a dark SUV that authorities thought to be an Infiniti. The victim was transported to a nearby hospital with bullet wounds to his buttock and left ankle.

"‘He Did Absolutely Nothing Wrong’: Florida Sheriff Won’t Charge Homeowner Who Fired Reported AK-47 Type Weapon At Home Invaders"
According to a Florida County sheriff, a homeowner who fired a reported AK-47-style firearm at home invaders will “absolutely not” face charges.
On July 7, 2022, three males appeared at the front door of the homeowner. When he unlocked the door, two of the men shoved him into the house, where they assaulted him while the third man waited outside with a handgun. The homeowner dropped his pistol, which was retrieved by one of his assailants, but the homeowner ran to the back of the house, picked up a reported AK-47-style firearm and fired at the intruders, forcing them to flee to the fourth suspect, who drove off with them.
Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons, asked if the homeowner had done anything wrong, told Fox News,“Absolutely not. If protecting your family and yourself is wrong, then I don’t know what we’re here for … He did absolutely nothing wrong.”
“When we look at whether the actions of the homeowner are reasonable, we try to think about what we would do,” he continued. “And I can tell you that if someone breaks into my front door, barges in and attacks me or my family, they are going to get shot, and I afford that same consideration to the residents of my county.”
“I don’t think there’s anything else to do; you have got to protect family, you have to protect yourself. And you have to use whatever reasonable means you have available to you … His life was obviously in danger … he certainly did what I would do,” Simmons concluded.
Da’Torrance Hackworth, 20, and Antonio Dewayne Dean Jr., 18, have been arrested on home invasion and illegal gun possession charges; Joseph Roman Sanders, 18, is still at large.
