The bad-guy was on the run when he ran into this armed homeowner. Tonopah homeowner who shot suspect says he was protecting his family
Earlier in the day, officials said Hurley attacked and seriously injured a deputy as he was being processed on felony warrants, then stole that deputy’s car.
He then ended up threatening the homeowner's father.
The first he claims was on Friday when he said Hurley just showed up in his front yard with a wooden knife, scaring him and his daughters as they were loading into his truck. After a verbal fight, he said Hurley left.
The homeowner said Hurley circled back, this time with a gun, and pointed it right at his dad.
That turned out to be a mistake. Hurley was hit with gunfire, and airlifted to a trauma center where he remains in critical condition.
The police officer he shot remains on life-support.
The homeowner said he doesn’t normally carry a gun but is grateful he decided to that day so he could protect his family.
Self-defense is a human-right.
