http://www.privateofficer.com/ A security officer is lucky to be alive after a series of frightening events in southwest Houston overnight.
A security officer on duty was sitting in his private vehicle when he saw a man breaking into a car on Beechnut at Cinnamon. When he went after him, another man started breaking into the security guard’s vehicle.
Investigators said that when the security officer tried to stop the second thief, detectives say three men then attacked him.
The security officer managed to pull his gun and shoot one of attackers and then another suspect wrestled the security officer’s gun away and tried to shoot him, but luckily, the gun jammed. The security officer continued to struggle with several of the men who finally fled the scene.
Houston police responded to the incident and arrested the other three men. The wounded man was treated at a local hospital. Police say the security officer received minor injuries.
