Mother Arrested After Firing A Warning Shot To Protect Her Daughter
(More info in attached article)
When a woman and her daughter were on their way home, they were ambushed by 10 guys they didn't know. They were walking in a parking lot, going to their car. One of the men got in her daughters face and hit her. The mother ran to the side, pulled out her gun and fired [b]one[/b] shot into the [b]air[/b]. When the cops showed up she didn't run or anything. Her daughter was sent to her Grandmother's until the case was solved and is now missing. The cops are still blaming the mother and have seemingly done less to search for the girl than her mother that is in a prison cell has.

This is a complicated situation. On the one hand, she tried to avoid having to kill someone by firing the warning shot. On the other hand, (it's my understanding that) as far as CCL with a CCW goes; you're only supposed to draw your weapon with the [b]intent to kill[/b], because your life is in danger. This would be considered brandishing a weapon, and possibly careless use of a firearm. I personally don't have an issue with her actions, but I do understand why the law does.
