This guy needs a smart gun.
I’m sure that he’ll be punished to the full extent of the law.
Everyone handles these situations differently. Alarm goes off, shadow around a dark garage, you never know if it’s a friend or a foe. But, why would a friend be in your garage at that time of a night. If you feel threatened, you do what you decide to do. Not going to judge the guy. I am sure the man feels bad ..so bad.

sneaks out after parents in bed
sneaking back in at 3:30 in the morning...
wonder if she learned something?
Thank God she survived.
What a bunch of liberals posting on this thread.
Blah blah, come in my garage at night on my property,
Either 2 things, going to occur.
Prayers up for them both—for her full recovery, and for dad—who is no doubt freaked out about it.
Kill ‘em all, let God sort ‘em out.
Why isn’t the Thug in PRISON for Attempted MURDER?? Felony Reckless Endangerment?? Using a Firearm during the commission of a Violent Felony?? Felony Reckless Driving??
Improper storage of a Firearm that resulted in Injury or Death of a Minor?? LIFE IN PRISON, NO EXCUSES. Because that is exactly what would happen to a mere citizen.
NO MORE SPECIAL RIGHTS FOR ANYONE,If it’s a good law then it shall be applied EQUALLY TO ALL PERSONS.
How sad. Hoping for the daughter’s full recovery.
With that said, although I would be petrified if there was an unknown person in my house, really petrified, I would not want to shoot, without first lighting up the target to ensure that it isn’t some neighbor kid, or lost drunk. And in my neck of the woods those are the most likely scenarios. Not too many armed break-ins in these parts, thank goodness.
So for me, I’ve decided it’s better to take the added risk of clearly identifying my target, than to kill an innocent.
