Burglar shot in the buttocks by partially-blind Ohio homeowner whom he knew and called 'uncle'
FRANKLIN, OHIO: A Ohio homeowner sent a suspected burglar to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the buttocks after finding the man inside his home in the middle of the night. "I got a shot off him. He was coming right toward me," the Franklin homeowner, who was not identified, informed 911 dispatchers.
On November 2 at 3.25 am, Franklin police said they responded to a complaint regarding a break-in where the homeowner had fired shots at the suspect, Jeffery L Carl. "The caller was unaware whether they hit the person or not and he was clearly scared on the phone and he did not want to get off the phone with dispatch until he saw an officer," Lt Brian Pacifico told Fox 19. Police said the homeowner had good reason to fire his gun. The homeowner told dispatchers during the call, "I don’t know if it hit him or not."
