Man charged with murder of co-defendant in self-defense shooting outside Lakeland restaurant<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Carla Bayron
\nLAKELAND, Fla. – The co-defendant of a man who died in a shooting that police claim was self-defense will remain in jail on no bond.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Lue, 27, of West Palm Beach made his first appearance in Polk County court on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The shooting happened just outside Calirose 15 Kitchen on April 24.<\/p>\n

The victim, a 24-year-old man, was at the restaurant to celebrate his mom’s birthday.<\/p>\n

He told police he walked outside to smoke a cigarette when Lue and Banks confronted him, asking, “Where is [redacted] at?”<\/p>\n

According to Lue’s arrest affidavit, Lue and Banks are gang members and the victim saw both had a gun in their waistbands.<\/p>\n

The victim told police Banks punched him in the face and knocked him backwards.<\/p>\n

Someone came out of the restaurant to help the victim, but Banks then told that person, “They were going to both die tonight.”<\/p>\n

Police say Banks struck that person in the face, and Lue pointed his gun at them.<\/p>\n

The victim, who was in fear for the other person’s life, took out his own gun from his waistband and fired shots.<\/p>\n

Both Lue and Banks were hit, though Banks later died from his injuries at the hospital.<\/p>\n

Police say the shooting was in self-defense because Lue and Banks instigated the argument and, under Florida law, it means that Lue can be charged in Banks’ death.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Owner of Snowflake Donuts Fatally Shoots Armed Robbery Suspect<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brandon Curtis
\nHOUSTON, TX (3-minute read) \u2014 An attempted armed robbery at a Houston donut shop turned deadly early Thursday morning when the store owner fatally shot the suspect in an apparent act of self-defense.<\/p>\n

The incident took place around 6:15 a.m. at Snowflake Donuts on Winkler Drive, just off the Gulf Freeway. According to Houston Police, the suspect\u2014dressed in dark clothing and armed with a firearm\u2014entered the store intending to commit a robbery. Moments later, the shop owner, who was also armed, shot the intruder.<\/p>\n

When police arrived just after 6:20 a.m., they found the suspect dead inside the store. Officers recovered the suspect\u2019s firearm and found the cash register open, suggesting an active robbery had been underway.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a busy place\u2026 people getting donuts or kolaches before they head to work or school,\u201d noted HPD Detective Socrates Trujillo. \u201cIt could have ended very differently, where innocent civilians could have been shot and injured.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the case is still under investigation, authorities said the store owner is not facing charges at this time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Snowflake, donuts and the Po-Po- there’s a joke just waiting right there. Glad the only one shot was the suspect.<\/p>\n

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until a majority of voters discover that they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury.
