From a 2009 thread:
French bar owner shoots dead armed robber with a BP revolver
It was in the news this morning.
A French Bar / Tabac owner has been placed in custody after killing an armed robber Friday night in the town of Flaviac, France.
The robbers were 3 in total and one of them was armed with an axe.
The owner took a black powder revolver from under his desk and first fired a warning shot towards the ceiling, which infuriated the armed robber who started to bash everything around with his axe. The owner then fired a second time, lethally wounding the aggressor in the chest.
The Gendarmerie has been given the investigation to determine whether this was a case of self-defense or not.

OK, the criminal was shot in the region of the heart, but didn't die instantly, the 2 other bad guys took him with them. They went to a doctor in another departement (equivalent of a "county") who was unable to do anything but noticing the death of the wounded.
They were later arrested by the police.

GREAT NEWS everybody.
The bar owner has just been certified as being in a state of legitimate self-defense. --->>> https://thehighroad.org/index.php?t...-dead-armed-robber-with-a-bp-revolver.422875/
