Two teens were shot and injured by a 71-year-old central Florida man who refused to stand by while the young men allegedly tried to rob an Internet café.

Samuel Williams was sitting in the Palms Internet Cafe in Ocala, Fla., Friday night when two men, later identified as Davis G. Dawkins, 19, and Duwayne Henderson, also 19, allegedly stormed in brandishing a handgun and a baseball bat.

"Don't none of you [expletives] move," one of the teens reportedly yelled at the café patrons.

In a surveillance video released by the police department, Williams, who is seated at a computer in the corner of the café, is seen standing up and pulling out a .380-caliber handgun shortly after the two men are apparently seen storming into the café and swinging a bat at something off screen.

Williams is apparently seen firing two shots at Henderson, who quickly heads for the front door. The 71-year-old then begins to fire at both of the young men, who appear to panic and hurriedly fall over as they flee the scene.

Both Dawkins and Henderson were arrested hours later, according to Ocala.com. They have been charged with attempted armed robbery with a firearm and felony criminal mischief.

Officials said it is unlikely that Williams will be charged with a crime for attacking the teens because the shooting seemed justifiable.

I see a double Standard.. How come this man wasnt charged and but an pharmacist in oklahoma shot robbers and gets arrested? You see how Cops are biased? And the same thing on Zimmerman case. This is why people dont like the Police. They dont really protect you!

It depends on the state's gun laws, and even local laws. Has nothing to do with the cops. These things all have to go through the district attorney's office.

Never trust the police, ever.

So you are saying even though the cops arrest the guy, the cops have nothing to do with it? So they didn't arrest the guy then? Yeah, they police did it so they have a lot to with it. You can trust them but I won't. Ever.
