Newly released details about the Christmas Eve shooting at a Clarksville, Tennessee, Walmart and reported on TTAG reveal the armed citizen who shot a man dangerously wielding a handgun in the store following an altercation acted in defense of his family. According to Clarksville Now, 19-year-old suspect, Labron Gibson, pulled out a gun and held it to a woman’s head, injuring her eye, and threatening to kill her, her husband and their two young children, ages 4 and 2.
The terrifying incident unfolded in the grocery section of the Walmart on Fort Campbell Boulevard, where witnesses heard three gunshots followed by panic as shoppers fled through emergency exits. Security footage showed Gibson waving a firearm and making threats before the woman’s husband drew his own handgun and fired several rounds, striking Gibson multiple times.
Gibson, who sustained non-life-threatening injuries, fled the scene and drove himself to a local healthcare facility before being transferred to Nashville for further treatment. Police later recovered Gibson’s firearm from his vehicle and charged him with four counts of aggravated assault.
This wasn’t Gibson’s first run-in with the law. In 2022, at age 17, he was involved in a carjacking after escaping from a Department of Children’s Services transport van.
The Clarksville Police Department has reaffirmed that the armed citizen’s actions were a justified response to an immediate and violent threat. The incident underscores the importance of responsible concealed carry and the critical role it can play in protecting innocent lives when seconds count.
Oooooahhh eeee that would take a lot of nerve shooting someone holding a gun to your wife’s head,,,,,,??????,,,,, Errrrr uh well maybe not, it depends.
🙄
Re-read the story. It wasn’t his wife but the wife of the guy who did the DGU.
Gibson waving a gun and making threats before the womans husband drew his own gun and,,,,,
How was this not the wife of the husband who did the shooting?
Point taken.
I’m glad I was not there that day.
Still the question remains unanswered: What was this doofus so upset about that he pointed a gun at the woman’s head? Not to suggest that his actions were justified, just curious as to what triggered the confrontation.
The real question is why was he out walking the streets.
The new real question: will he be out walking the streets in the future?
It could make sense that he was out in society if he was unarmed when he carjacked someone at age 17.
Going forward, though, he should not be free in society.
The real real question is why, after several close range shots, was he not assuming room temperature?

I was wondering the same thing: what is the mental state and process of a 19 year-old who takes a woman hostage at gunpoint and threatens to murder her, her husband, and her two young children?
The only rational answer, in my opinion, is that the perpetrator was/is simply evil.
some people just need killin’
To borrow a concept from Forrest Gump … Crazy is as crazy does
“I was wondering the same thing: what is the mental state and process of a 19 year-old who takes a woman hostage at gunpoint and threatens to murder her, her husband, and her two young children?

We call that the left-wing ‘mental illness’ concept. Its from the same place the mentally ill left wingers get the idea they can abort viable fetuses up to the moment of birth and if not then shortly after birth the infant can be killed and “hey, lets call it an abortion then too.” Life of others has no value to these types, they see it as a means to get what they want for them and it satisfies the greed and vanity and ego and sickness deep inside them to be able to exercise that evil need for power over the lives of others to sacrifice it on their alter of ‘me me me’.
Ultimately this mutt won’t be long for the world, the only tragedy is how much harm he’ll cause before Darwin skims the turd out of the gene pool.
At the range we occasionally practice with the hostage splat-type targets – so I know she can miss me.

Well she’s done to 13 days and Brandon is hanging on.
A shame it wasn’t DRT. This individual will eventually get released and endanger some other people.
