Car Buyer Fights Off Armed Robber

posted on December 25, 2015

After two men made arrangements to buy a car advertised on the Internet, they went to meet the sellers. But things quickly turned ugly.

At the meeting, the alleged seller, 22-year-old Brandon Johnson, pulled a gun on the buyers and tried to rob them. Instead, one of the victims turned the tables, drawing his own gun and shooting Johnson several times. 

Johnson was pronounced dead at the scene, and the car buyers were not taken into custody.
