That is what the guy who was arrested is claiming. Self-defense shooting NC: Man won't face charges for shooting Cary suspect accused of dousing him in gasoline, hitting him [with] car - ABC11 Raleigh-Durham
You're at a gas station minding your own business when someone douses you with gasoline, and then hits you with his car. I would say you're justified in viewing him as a threat.
Carry, North Carolina is suburban Raleigh, being about 5 miles west of downtown.
According to authorities, Trombley approached a man on January 30th, just before 6:00 a.m. at the Exxon Refuel station on Maynard Road, near Chapel Hill Road.
Trombley then allegedly poured gasoline over this man and hit him with his car. The man then shot Trombley in the chest in what police believe was an act of self-defense.
Trombley spent several days in hospital, and then was arrested on two counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. Despite the charges he was granted bail in the amount of $75,000.
He has a handful of prior convictions and pending charges, some include DWI, drug charges, and fleeing from officers. He declined a court-appointed attorney Tuesday, but it's unclear who will represent him on this latest round of charges.
Color me shocked.
Self-defense is a human-right. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
