Oops, Wrong House: Greensboro [NC] police say an 80-year-old man is
not facing charges after he shot and killed a break-in suspect early
Wednesday morning. Charles Haithcock called 911 immediately following
the shooting of 19-year-old Michael L. Medley who he says broke into
his home. "A man broke in on me and pulled a gun. I shot him and he's
laying out in the yard." …When officers arrived, they found Medley,
Jr. dead from a gunshot wound. "The guy ran into the back room, locked
his door and shot through the bedroom door and killed him," said
Haithcock's neighbor, who did not want to be identified… (All's well
that ends well but shooting through a door is a tricky proposition.
Rule Four: Always be sure of your target and what's beyond it.)

Oops, Wrong Pawn Shop: One of two men who tried to rob the Broadway
Joe's Pawn and Jewelry Shop was in critical condition Thursday night
after being shot by a store employee. The other man was still at
large. About 3:25 p.m., two men entered the business, 1435 Broadway at
Parmele Street, and attempted to rob the store. A store employee
retrieved a handgun that was stored inside the business and fired at
the two. One of them was struck by the gunfire inside the store while
the second man fled the scene on foot, Deputy Chief Theo Glover said…
(Note that this occurred in Illinois but not in Chicago.)
