Father of 2 shot in the face while trying to keep carjackers from taking his toddler (VIDEO)

It said his other child was 6 weeks (or month?) old I believe. So, they will never even get to really know him. Both children will certainly know what KIND of father they had though.
 
I wonder if they approached him gun drawn? Or did they pull gun once close to him and talking? Did he see them coming? If he was carrying, would that have changed the outcome and he be alive? If...? He could of had a chance to evade this in any way. Article says it was caught on surveillance.

New Jersey... What demonstrable urgent need to carry a firearm did he have prior to being executed? Did he work as a security officer? Duty to retreat state too.

Concealed Permit:
May Issue
to Residents and Non-Residents
Issuance of the permit is almost completely discretionary, and New Jersey courts have upheld the policy of strictly limiting permits “to persons specifically employed in security work . . . and to others who can establish an urgent necessity for carrying guns for self-protection.”

Requirements:
The applicant must meet the requirements of the Permit to Purchase and FID, provide personal information, be fingerprinted, prove his familiarity with the use of handguns, have three reputable people knowing the person for at least three years and have a “justifiable need to carry a handgun.”

A description, including serial number, of every handgun which the applicant intends to carry must be provided. Only one permit need be obtained for all such handguns.

Failure to give notice to an applicant within 60 days is deemed to be an approval of the permit. The procedure for appealing a denial is the same as appealing a denial of a Permit to Purchase or FID.
