Man shoots, kills robber

No issues here. I'm glad he's dead. But you know how our laws are. He shot at them as they were escaping. Hell someone might even twist his words and say that the robbers returned fire after the one shot.

They shot first though, he returned fire. He can also argue that he feared for his life and that they may come back. They had already proved they were willing to use a gun to subdue him, maybe next time they shoot him.

It is funny how the laws are but most magistrates are pretty decent people, I don't think he will have an issue.
 
Public 1 - criminals 0 for this round. Next round .. *ding*
 
And the man will now probably, and sadly, face some sort of punishent.

Almost definitely not, see the circumstances in the article. If it's all true then no way he will face any punishment.

Why do you think he'll face punishment? (blanket "law protects criminals" rubbish doesn't apply when you have facts btw..)
