The Springfield man who allegedly fired several shots at a fleeing purse thief last week has had his concealed carry endorsement revoked, the Greene County Sheriff’s Office said today.
Charles R. Webb, 61, is charged with felony unlawful use of a weapon in the Friday night incident.
Police say Webb was waiting in his car outside of a Price Cutter store at 3260 E. Battlefield Rd. when he saw the purse snatching occur.
The thief hopped into a waiting sport utility vehicle, and Webb pursued the man.
He allegedly cornered the SUV in a nearby motel parking lot, and fired three shots with a 9mm handgun at the vehicle, an apparent attempt to disable its tires.
The purse thief’s vehicle escaped, and Webb allegedly engaged in a chase that reached speeds of 80 mph.
