The security guard who left his post late Saturday night to investigate a “suspicious vehicle” and ended up shooting unarmed 18-year-old Ervin Jefferson had an expired weapons permit.
DeKalb Public Safety Director William Miller said Ervin Jefferson “possibly threatened to kill” the guard. Scott has not been charged in the shooting, but police are still investigating.
That has nothing to do with the fact he still has the right to defend himself. Maybe he should have grabbed a piece of wood to kill the guy with. Of course if he didn't have a beat someone to death with a piece of wood in self defense permit he would be in the wrong also.
