They’re not even close to the same scenario. There’s a presumption that someone entering your house uninvited poses a risk to you. You have a store that you welcome people into. Unless you can tie guy #2 to guy #1, and you need to do better than they both had licenses from the same state and were selling similar items, this is a very serious situation.

Your best hope right now is that guy #2 bails and isn’t able to testify against you. Best of luck beating it, because it’s a shitty situation, but I think you need to start taking this a little more seriously. A lot will depend on your record on the testimony of the guy you ran down, so if he’s a no-show that’s a big help to you.
