An
alleged armed robber in Chicago picked the wrong victim, getting into a
tussle that left him wounded, bruised and in cuffs. Anthony Miranda,
24, faces charges including discharging a weapon during a robbery, after
allegedly approaching a 33-year-old man sitting in a car and asking for
a light before pulling a gun and demanding his valuables. The victim
complied and the gunman ordered him out of the car. That’s when the
driver grabbed for the gun and during the ensuring struggle, Miranda
shot himself in the ankle. The victim, who held his assailant until
police arrived, told officers he is a mixed-martial arts competitor.
Miranda, who was on parole for a burglary conviction, was jailed in lieu
of $350,000 bail.
