92-year-old Kathryn Johnston did not going softly into the night. After three undercover police officers kick down her door Johnston did want any self respecting woman that’s been around for nearly a century would do… take a few of them with her.

Johnston managed to shot three of the officers before meeting her own demise. She got off three shots, hitting one cop in the arm, another in a thigh and the third in a shoulder.

The Assistant Chief Alan Dreher said the officers had a legal warrant and “knocked and announced” before they forced open the door. He said they were justified in shooting once they were fired upon.

Now I can see where a 92-year-old woman might not get confused that in the middle of the night three men in plain clothes busting down her door are actually police officers. Espically when they have guns drawn.

Here’s to Kathryn Johnston, not taking shit from nobody.

STORY OF THE YEAR.

Note to thieves everywhere: Don’t mess with David Copperfield.

After performing at the Kravis Center in Florida Copperfield was approached by thugs while wallking to his tour bus:

Copperfield, 50, and two female assistants were walking from the Kravis Center to their tour bus when they were approached by the teens April 23. The assistants handed over money and a cellphone, but the illusionist turned his pockets inside out to reveal nothing, although he was carrying his passport, wallet and cell phone.

“He said in depositions that he had things on him, but it wasn’t difficult to make it seem like there was nothing there,” prosecutor Sherri Collins said.

I don’t know what’s funnier to picture, Copperfield walking with a girl on each arm or a guy mugging him only to find he doesn’t have anything via magic. I think as a causual criminal and if I knew who he was I would have called him on this magic bullshit.

Side Note: If he’s that good at magic he would have made the assistants valuables disappear as well.
