Woman opens fire at purse snatcher caught outside Walmart, but leaves the scene with her gun when police arrive to arrest him
A woman who saw a purse-snatching outside a Texas Walmart parked her truck and fired a handgun at an alleged thief as he was running away.
Cellphone video of the incident on the outskirts of Waco showed the unidentified woman shooting a single shot at Andre Dawson, 27, before he fell to the ground and was captured.
Authorities say that Dawson, who was later arrested, was not hit but stumbled when he heard the shot, though they still want to talk to the woman who opened fire at him as he tried to flee.
Police say they are just looking to identify her and hear her account of the incident.
Dawson allegedly tried to snatch a purse from the shopping basket before a group of men chased him down and tackled him.
In bystander video he is seen pinned to the ground as the unidentified armed woman points a handgun at him.
The woman had seen 'commotion' around the purse snatching and parked her truck before getting out with her firearm, witnesses told KWTX.
At one point he gets up and begins to run away, though falls after the shot is fired and briefly avoids a group of men who chased him down and held him until police arrived.
The unidentified woman who fired the shot left the scene before officers could talk to her.

-- Hope this fake-vigilante bytch gets turned the fukk out by some toothless, herpes-ridden, cousin-fukkin hillbillies. The purse was no longer in his possession. He was getting hit and tackled, and was just tryin to get away, in fear for his life with a piece pointed at him. Fukk a thief, but fukk these gun-totin' backwoods CACs even more.
