Good thing the guy had a gun to defend himself, or he'd be dead.

PHILADELPHIA - A Temple University student and a 15-year-old boy are
both in the hospital after the two exchanged gunfire early Monday
morning, police said.

Police said the shootings followed a botched robbery attempt by the teen
in the 2300 block of North 12th Street, north of Dauphin Street and
off-campus.

Police said the 15-year-old tried to rob Michael Eels in front of his
house. But when Eels refused to give him money, the teen started shooting.

Eels, who has a gun permit, started shooting back, and both were hit.

The 15-year-old will be charged with aggravated assault and attempted
robbery, police said. Eels will not be charged.

Temple officials said he's recovering at Temple University Hospital.

You stupid idiot. Give the kid the money and call the cops. What
part of his body was hit by bullets and what disability will he have
to manage for the rest of his life. He's lucky he wasn't killed.

You idiots that fuel your brains with testosterone are more likely to
be killed or maimed than those of us who use our brains to avoid or
work out of deadly situations. You're welcome to whatever Rambo
lifestyle you like, hopefully your kids are smarter than you.
