Thursday morning feel good story

| February 6, 2014

This morning’s story comes from South Carolina where homeowner Woody Way returned home at about 9 am and found someone breaking into his house;

The man then fired several shots at the intruder, but he took off running, according to deputies.

Deputies said the homeowner was not sure if the suspect had been shot.

Officers were still out searching for the man about 11 a.m. in the area of Dyar Road.

Deputies have not released any other information.

Back to the range for you, Mr. Way.

Poetrooper sends us a link to The Blaze which warns criminals to stay away from 84-year-old Marines, too, especially Albuquerque veteran “Tom”;

The 84-year-old said the incident — it was not clear exactly what day it took place — started when he was woken up staring straight into the barrel of a gun.

“It wasn’t no small one you put in a purse,” Tom told KOAT-TV.

But the former Marine Corps veteran wasn’t willing to go down without a fight. When one of the intruders tried to choke him with a radio cord, Tom fought back and hit him below the belt.

“I just took my fists and cause he’s right at my height if I’m kneeling on the floor and he’s standing right at the height for the groin,” Tom recalled.

Marines…old or otherwise, never give up the fight. Semper Fildelis to all the Marines out there.
