Can I shoot an armed gunman in the back as he's running away?

And get away with it?
For instance, some thug robs me at gunpoint, takes my shyt and runs off before I'm able to grab my glock. Is there a way I can blast him in the back and claim self-defense or stand your ground or at least spin it to appear that was the case?
A co-worker of mines got robbed after she left a party over the weekend and it's gotten me curious.

In some cases, you can shoot a fleeing felon in the back. Lots of provisions though.
I think the case is Tennessee v. Conner (or Connor).

Only if you want a load blasted on your back for the next 30 years.

Legally any shot in the back shows they were fleeing thus any threat would be considered over.....but I'd still prolly shoot with all the adrenaline pumping!

Not now. It sounds premeditated. Never research murder on the internet. That's how they get you.

You can't shoot anybody in the back dummy.

Just shoot them in the leg til they turn around

There is only one area you can shoot someone and get away from it 100%

In Texas you could likely get away with it, since the Joe Horn incident.

"•Enrique Recio III, a 23-year-old Texas State University student wrecked his car in a northwest Austin neighborhood around 3 a.m. in early February.
Fred Yazdi, 47, found Recio hiding under his wife’s car in their driveway. “If you flee, I’m going to shoot you,” Yazdi said, according to police, and when Recio tried to run Yazdi shot him three times.
Now Yazdi is facing murder charges in WIlliamson County, but District Attorney John Bradley has said the grand jury will have to consider the case in light of Texas’ castle doctrine protections.

Why would you want to? When he turns and runs, he's no longer an immediate threat to you.
Posted on 11/23/16 at 7:27 pm to Tarik One
If you shoot a guy on your doorstep be sure to drag his arse inside after
Posted on 11/23/16 at 7:28 pm to Tarik One
I will say no, but could you argue you felt this person was going to do harm to another person?
Posted on 11/23/16 at 7:28 pm to Tarik One
Are you black, and is the would-be target black?
If so, no one will care, press on brother!

He got a gun, he could turn around and shoot you, just don't tell anyone he was running away.

You can argue your case all the way to prison.
