A 79-year-old man managed to muster the presence of mind to fight back after he was attacked while getting out of his vehicle in his garage early Tuesday morning, authorities said.
The man, who wasn’t identified, lives in Elderon, Wisconsin, according to WAOW-TV in nearby Wausau.
When confronted by an attacker who stabbed him in the face, the elderly man withdrew his gun and fired one round, the report said.
The shot killed the alleged attacker, identified as a 22-year-old man. WAOW reported the dead man’s name was being withheld until his family was notified.
Marathon County sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the elderly man’s home at 2:37 on Tuesday morning, according to a news release.
He did the right thing!
Consider it a late term abortion. I’m pro choice and my choice is to shoot your ass when you try to hurt me. One less drain on society. I’m sure they will find someone to fill his medical school spot.
One less bad guy in the world. It won’t solve our problem but it is a good start.
Lesson over. Perp has completed his education.
