NYC garage worker charged with attempted murder for shooting thief.

A parking garage attendant in NYC has been charged with attempted murder, assault, and criminal possession of a weapon after confronting an armed thief and shooting him in the chest. The attendant, Moussa Diarra, had wrestled the gun away from the thief after being shot in the stomach and grazed in the ear. The alleged thief, Charles Rhodie, was also charged with attempted murder, assault, criminal possession of a weapon, and burglary. The charges against Diarra for defending himself come after a similar incident last year where a bodega clerk was charged with murder for fatally stabbing his attacker in self-defense.
