Chief Tango sends today’s feel good story comes from Houston<\/a> again where 58-year-old Dwayne Dixon was turning his life around in a convenience store;<\/p>\n

Norman Ali, the clerk at the store, said that Dixon then pulled out his gun and demanded money. The clerk gave Dixon the money and then pulled out a gun of his own.<\/p>\n

\u201cI pulled out my gun and gave him a warning. After that, it took off back and forth shooting,\u201d Ali said.<\/p>\n

During the shooting, employees and customers were dogging bullets.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was no conversation, there was just gun fire. That\u2019s all it was. The customers hid and that was it,\u201d Ali said.<\/p>\n

Ali said he shot Dixon more than once, before the suspect fled the scene in a brown Ford Astrovan. The clerk then followed the suspect.<\/p>\n

Dixon ended up crashing into a ditch near the intersection of De Priest and Lucky, police said. He tried to get help from nearby residents demanding that they take him to a hospital.<\/p>\n

Dixon even pulled a gun on one person, police said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dixon’s record of turning his life around goes back to 1988 and 1990 when he was convicted of aggravated robbery. So, Houston is marginally safer tonight while he tends his wounds.<\/p>\n
