Illegal Alien Attempts Robbery, Store Owner Shoots Him With His Own Gun

By Duane Lester • May 13th, 2008

Alberto Perez crossed the border into America illegally with the sole intent of robbing stores and taking the loot back across the border into Mexico. He smuggled a gun into the country, also illegal, and entered Soccer City.

He left in police custody:

Alberto Perez, 22, entered Soccer City around 5:40 p.m., pointed a gun at owner Lionel Sanchez and demanded money, according to police.

Police said Perez locked the store’s front door from the inside.

Sanchez told police Perez was talking to someone on the phone and indicated he planned to shoot.

When Perez momentarily let his guard down, police said, Sanchez lunged for the gun and wrestled it away, then shot Perez three times.

Sanchez has been studing martial arts for five years and said it is what gave him the confidence to go for the gun. He is not being charged with a crime.

Duane Lester A one-man political wrecking machine, Duane was not always such a strong conservative. He did not always see things from through the filters of a right wing/libertarian belief system. Now he does. Duane grew up in the midwest, the son of two staunch Democrats. He served in the military overseas and has since moved back to the Midwest after touring around the world. He has a wife and four children. He has a big head. I’m tired of writing in the third person. God bless America.
