Surveillance footage showed mugger, Cody Gonzalez, charging at Foehner despite gun draw. Foehner, concerned about rising crime, carried weapon. He will begin sentence in mid-January, allowed to remain free for Christmas due to judges ruling. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered. Hosted on Acast.
