Man arrested for defending his home with an AK

He had to go inside to grab the rifle and tell his wife to call 911...should have stayed there.

That sums up this guy's legal troubles. Also it would be far easier to shoot the scumbags from a choke point inside the house as they entered. Wait at the top of the stairs and wait for them to funnel on up until the police arrive.

Were all the family members in the house also?
Need more info.

Totally agree...warning shots never seem to go over well with law enforcement...

I'm no legal expert but I would guess the only way you would get away with a warning shot would be if you were justified in shooting someone, but decided to give a warning shot instead...I don't think you can do it to scare people away...

like I said before, he woulda been better off popping a couple of em, instead of firing warning shots.
Its not like the retribution from the gang will be any less,

Grier said he knew Nassau County Police employ the hi-tech “ShotSpotter” technology in his area and that the shooting would bring police in minutes. Cops told Guzman he was very cooperative....That ShotSpotter technology pinpoints where a gun has been fired within 35 feet. Police said it also detected two other shootings in nearby Roosevelt that night

Doesn't Minneapolis have this? Anyone want to get a starter pistol and have some races in the local park...or maybe get out a nailgun that uses cartridges and build something?
