He reportedly then returned fire.

The Stevens ran inside and called 911.

When investigators got there, they found boy in the road and transported him to the hospital.

Deputies be live his motive was robbery.

There is no information on his condition.

Sounds like they used good judgement when they armed themselves before going outside.

“says the he pointed a shotgun at him.”

What about the she wife? Did the she say anything to the he after the he fired a shot at the her?

Some people in Tennessee write funny. I’d guess this was a dozen bourbon shots story.
