Texas Self-Defense: Woman shoots man trying to rob her at gas station :: 06/06/2015

A woman was "cool as a cucumber" Friday evening when she opened fire at a man who tried to rob her at a gas station in northeast Harris County, sheriff's deputies said.

The woman, in her mid-30s, pulled into an Exxon station about 6 p.m. along FM 2100 and Saddle Creek Farms Drive.

She was in the driver's seat when a man suddenly got into the passenger side. He pulled out a knife and demanded her cash, Harris County sheriff's deputies said.

The woman agreed and reached over to her purse. But instead of money, she pulled out a pistol.

"She shoots him one time in the left shoulder," Deputy Thomas Gilliland said.
