He had a license for the gun. Wouldn't he overpower the criminal?

Who really was the victim? Those other teens were drinking, underage drinking to be exact.

I searched briefly yesterday and there were two more articles from phillyburbs. One spoke mainly about the family of the dead kid, his funeral, how he couldn't have done anything wrong, etc. The other rehashed the story with a bent on alcohol being the cause:

DA: Underage drinking ultimately responsible for shooting at Wawa
By HARRY YANOSHAK
The Intelligencer

Underage drinking is ultimately responsible for the Easter Sunday shooting in Bensalem that left a man dead and another man critically wounded, Bucks County District Attorney Diane Gibbons said.

The underage drinking party that took place shortly before the shooting at the Wawa on Lincoln Highway will be prosecuted as aggressively as the shooting itself, she said.

"It's ultimately the crime that went on here," Gibbons said.

Bensalem and Bucks County investigators are interviewing several people who witnessed or took part in the fight that reportedly prompted the shooting.

Matthew Taylor, 19, of Sheffield Avenue, Philadelphia, was shot once in the chest and died. Alex Ryzinski, 18, of Rhawn Street, Philadelphia, was critically wounded with a gunshot to his abdomen. He remains hospitalized at Frankford Hospitals' Torresdale campus in Philadelphia, Bensalem police said.

The men were part of a group of 17- to 20-year-olds from Philadelphia who had been drinking at a party in a room at the Neshaminy Motor Inn, on Lincoln Highway across from the Wawa, according to police.

The partygoers were too noisy and eventually booted from the motel, after which they crossed the highway to the Wawa, police said. There, the group of young men got into a fight with a 24-year-old man they didn't know, according to Gibbons. The 24-year-old man was beaten before he pulled a gun and shot Taylor and Ryzinski, police said. Three other shots were apparently fired because police recovered five shell casings in the parking lot, investigators said. The man who was allegedly beaten by the group refused medical treatment, Gibbons said.
