Also, don't start fights with random people in states that respect the right of self-defense. Mandeville homeowners struggle in fight with trespasser before shooting him, sheriff says | WWL TV
When deputies arrived, the homeowners said they saw Smith near their garage and when one of the homeowners confronted him " Smith charged and attacked the homeowner", the release said.
The first homeowner who was attacked fought with Smith and yelled for the second homeowner's help who came outside and begged for Smith to stop., according to the sheriff's office.
When Smith refused to let go of the first homeowner, the second homeowner went inside and "armed himself with a firearm", asking Smith to stop again.
He didn't stop the attack. He attacked the homeowner with the gun, and he got shot.
Mandeville, Louisiana is on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, about 25 north of New Orleans.
The cops in St. Tammany Parish are treating this like a case of justified self-defense.
The guy who got shot was taken to a local hospital.
Smith is charged with Criminal Trespassing, Attempted Simple Kidnapping, Simple Battery, and Simple Assault. Upon release from the hospital, he will be booked into the St. Tammany Parish Correctional Facility.
I'm guessing that is not how he saw his day turning out.
Self-defense is a human-right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
