Shoot the perp, no. To disable his vehicle, not so clear.

See yesterday's Boca Raton incident in the Palm Beach Post link I posted
elsewhere in the thread. Will be interesting to see how that story
finishes.

This is the same Boca neighborhood of the "Wolfie's Delicatessen" incident
some years ago. Grandma comes out of the restaurant, punks in a car grab
her purse, she hangs on and fights back, gets run over and stuck under the
car, perps drive down the road and out to I-95 dragging her body all the
way.

The 1/2 mile of bloody smeared grandma was visible on the pavement for
months afterwards. They never cleaned it up, and it took that long for it
to weather away. It was a good reminder of reality, while it lasted.
