Funny story day continues today with this story over at Breitbart.com, Cops: Man, 93, Shoots Violent Robber:
EL DORADO, Ark. (AP) – An elderly man beaten unconscious by an assailant wielding a soda can awoke and shot the man during an attempted robbery, police said.
Willie Lee Hill, 93, told police he saw the robber while in his bedroom Wednesday night. Hill confronted the man and was struck at least 50 times, police said. He was knocked unconscious.
Covered in blood, Hill regained consciousness a short time later and pulled a .38-caliber handgun on his attacker. The suspect, Douglas B. Williams Jr., saw the gun and charged the man, who fired a bullet that struck Williams in the throat, police said.
“I got what I deserved,” Williams, 24, told police when they arrived, officers said. Investigators reported finding, among other items, a Craftsman drill bit set, three pocket knives and two hearing aids inside his pockets.
Would love to hear the anti gun lobby whine about a 93 year old man defending his home after being beaten! (seriously though, what kind of inept robber steals hearing aids and uses a soda can as a weapon?)
