CLEARWATER — Knocked to the ground by a would-be robber, 83-year-old Charles Place defended himself - by pulling a gun.
Clearwater Police said Place was in a restaurant parking lot Wednesday when a man grabbed him from behind and tried to take his wallet.
Place resisted and was knocked to the ground. Police said that's when Place pulled out a .25-caliber semiautomatic handgun.
Authorities said Place pointed it at the man and ordered him to leave him alone.
Place, who has a permit to carry a concealed weapon, wound up with small cuts on his hand.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
