     A small clarification...

     Mr. Goetz has been characterized as a  "vigilante".   However,  such  a
description suggests one who actively seeks out those he considers criminals
to exact his own form of justice.  Therefore, since Mr. Goetz was not  look-
ing  for  the  individuals who accosted him, but rather reacted to them when
they found him at random, he is not a vigilante, but rather a citizen acting
solely in self-defense.
