Video shows 71-year-old man shooting 2 would-be robbers at Internet cafeibune.com

OCALA, Fla. - Authorities in central Florida say two men were trying to rob an Internet cafe when a 71-year-old patron began shooting his own gun, wounding the suspects. Surveillance video shows two masked men entering the Palms Internet Cafe around 10 p.m. Friday. The Ocala Star-Banner ( http://bit.ly/NvmmEg) reports one pointed a gun at customers while the other swung a baseball bat. The video shows patron Samuel Williams pulling a handgun and shooting. He continues firing while the suspects fall over each other as they run out the door. Nineteen-year-olds Duwayne Henderson and Davis Dawkins were later arrested and face attempted armed robbery with a firearm and criminal mischief charges. Both posted bail and were released. Williams has a concealed weapons permit. Bill Gladson of the Marion County State Attorney's Office says the shooting appears justified. ___
