Sheriff: no carry in park
Here we go again:
At the same time, Durante moved to revoke DePaul's permit to carry a concealed firearm because, he said, carrying a firearm on any county trail or in its parks is illegal.

Re: Sheriff: no carry in park
Hmm unable to tell if this was a good shoot from the story.
It almost sounds like he was defending himself against the same kind of thugs that had bothered the DA. Maybe they threatened his life?
Still your point is valid - wrong reason to pull his license.

looking at the description of the shoot in the link in this thread - he used very bad judgement.Last edited by falcn; July 24th, 2009 at 02:46 PM.

Risa Vetri Ferman, Montgomery County District Attorney, said an investigation is ongoing into what role the juveniles played, and charges could be lodged later."This guy was clearly the aggressor," Durante said. "That's why his permit is being revoked."
The district attorney, in an odd coincidence, was riding bikes on the trail near Norristown with her husband several weeks ago when the pair saw a group of teenagers enter the trail, which in the county stretches for 60 miles from Green Lane to the border with Philadelphia.
The group spread across the trail, partly blocking the way, Ferman said. As they approached, her husband lowered his shoulder and knocked one of them out of the way, according to her account.
Two other people have reported being assaulted on the trail. As a result of the incidents, there was a meeting involving the sheriff, the district attorney, and local police, Durante and Ferman said.
"We will not tolerate violent thugs who terrorize law- abiding citizens enjoying our trail," Ferman said today in an e-mail. "We will go after these punks, and give them the punishment they deserve."
Ferman advised: "If someone is on the trail and witnesses an incident or anything that appears suspicious, I strongly encourage them to contact police immediately."
Durante recommended carrying a cell phone from which to call authorities.
I'd like to know more about James DePaul Jr. because I think we might need to set up another support thread for him.
