You never know when a terrible thing can happen. In a sports bar in Arlington, Texas, a man walked up to the bar and started yelling odd things at people. The manager came out to talk to the man, but the guy pulled out a gun and fatally shot him. No warning. Nothing.

Police haven’t been able to find a connection between the shooter and the victim. The Blaze explained what happened next.

It was then that an unidentified man police are calling the “Good Samaritan” told his wife to get down, and drew his own concealed firearm. The “Good Samaritan” then opened fire on Jones, and hit him.

“After he was struck once, the suspect started shooting at the front door,” Cook said. “We know people were trying to escape, but we’re not sure if he was just trying to harm others.”

The “Good Samaritan” hit Jones several more times before Jones would go down and die from his wounds.

Police later discovered that Jones had an additional firearm, and two knives on his person.

“Had the Good Samaritan not intervened, there could have further loss of life,” Cook said.

The unidentified “Good Samaritan” is being hailed as a hero by Arlington police, and will face no charges as he broke no laws being both a concealed carry license holder, and firing his weapon in a “blue sign” business. These “blue signs” allow certain establishments that serve alcohol to allow patrons to carry firearms with them on the premises.

Wow. What a hero. So glad he was there when this went down and so glad that he’d taken the time to prepare himself for such a moment as this.
