Good Guy with a Gun #184: Jackson, MS
After trying a bunch of doors, they picked the wrong one. Monte Hall could not be reached for comment. | Original incident: May 1, 2024
These posts are based on our Good Guy with a Gun calendar. Today’s post is essentially the same as the calendar version.
Home invaders take many seemingly harmless forms.
Three guys were going door-to-door to see if anyone wanted their lawn mowed. One woman answered the door and said she didn’t need their services.
Her daughter lives in the same neighborhood. When the men got to the daughter’s house and found her gone, they broke in.
The daughter arrived home and interrupted them mid-burglary. They opened fire on her.
She returned fire, driving them off. She was unhurt; one of the men was eventually captured.
Girl Scouts selling cookies? Probably okay. All others? Be wary.

Sigh. It's so frustrating to feel you have to suspect everybody.
