Random Violence

17-Year-Old Arrested For Murder

An Opa-Locka teenager is being held without bond after a court hearing and after Miami-Dade Police arrested him for shooting and killing a 71-year-old man.

"My husband was a hard-working man. He was just going to get groceries," said Aleida Pilotos

Police say the gunman rode up to Pilotos’s car on a bicycle and pulled out his weapon and shot him. It happened in the parking lot of the supermarket...


The police cannot protect everyone from this kind of random violence. But, it is possible for you to protect yourself. 

The sites of incidents like this one have been random, but the behavioral pattern is not random. The risk of becoming a victim may be increasing, but the legal risk associated with a proactive defense is effectively being reduced with each event.

Stay armed, stay alert, stay safe.
