The next story is from Arizona where a resident took Joe Biden’s advice;
Olmos told deputies he and the two other men had come to the home to collect a large amount of money owed to him by one of four people in the house, Gaffney said.
Olmos admitted they were well armed, brought black zip-ties and were “prepared for whatever,” Gaffney said.
The 59-year-old homeowner spotted three people outside wearing hoods and holding guns as he viewed the house security camera, and then heard the suspects kicking at his back door, Gaffney said.
He said he fired one round from his shotgun and another person inside the home fire a round from a handgun after seeing laser sights pointed at his head, Gaffney said.
The three suspects returned fire and then fled, with the wounded Olmos falling in a neighboring yard.
