The pictures are from WHAS ABC Channel 11 in Louisville, Kentucky.  The attack occurred on Tuesday, January 26th, 2016.  From WVIH.com:

According to Louisville Metro Police Department spokeswoman Alicia Smiley, a woman was sitting in her vehicle in the parking garage near the intersection of 5th and Jefferson Streets when a man with a knife approached her then demanded money and her purse, around 6:15 p.m. Tuesday.

The woman pulled out a gun and shot the man. The man fled to the PNC Plaza where he stopped and police were called. The woman also flagged down police. . . .

Fox News has new concealed carry products for women (lingerie, Bra, and Garter holsters).
