Angry customer pulls gun at Texas shopping mall
http://www.chron.com/news/local_news/article/Angry-shopper-pulls-a-gun-at-South-Park-Mall-4060598.phpOn Black Friday, the stakes are even higher, which might explain why a concealed handgun license-holder pulled his gun on a man who punched him in the face while the two were waiting in line inside the Sears at South Park Mall on Thursday night.
The men had entered the store, which opened at 8 p.m. for its Black Friday sale.
A man was pushing to get to the front of the line and started arguing with other people, trying to cut in front of them, said San Antonio Police Sgt. Rob Carey. Then he started calling people names, the sergeant said, and punched another customer in the face.
Roger Rivera, who was shopping in the Sears, said the man who was punched then pulled a gun and pointed it at the rabble-rouser, although Carey said the man actually pointed the gun at the ground. Everyone scattered, “tumbling over things, dropping boxes,” Rivera said. The man who was trying to cut in line ran and hid behind a refrigerator before he fled the store.

for the manufacturer of the refrigerator?
In need of a place to hide? Need a refuge far from the madding crowd? Nothing says safety and refuge better than Frigidaire.
