Meyers told police he was awakened by a noise around 5 a.m. and
saw someone trying to break into his storage shed with a pickax. He
grabbed his gun, came out the home and yelled at the alleged burglar.

He said he shot the person, who was coming toward him. The burglar
dropped the pickax and ran toward the park, Meyers said.

He didn't know whether he hit the person so he went back to bed, an arrest warrant affidavit said. After sunrise, he said he saw the person lying on the ground.

He told investigators he threw the spent shell casings in the trash.
Court documents said Meyers refused to answer questions from a 911
dispatcher, saying only that he was defending himself and that
medical assistance was needed.

The writer doesn’t call him the alleged shooter but the crook is an alleged robber.

He did the right thing in not saying anything to the 911 operator. His next call should be to his attorney. Being charged with murder is sometimes routine to preserve all evidence!!!
