79 Year-Old Man Shoots Burglars With .357 Magnum

79-Year-Old Shoots Two Intruders, Police Say

Homeowner Says Men Kicked In His Back Door At 5 A.M.

Dry Ridge, Kentucky -- A 79-year-old man armed with a .357 magnum revolver shot two men after they broke into his home overnight,

Police answering a call about a break-in and burglary found two men shot outside a home on Ellen Kay Drive in Grant County.

The homeowner told police the two men kicked in his back door just before 5 a.m. Saturday. They tried to flee after being shot.

Police said they found one wounded man in the driveway and followed a trail of blood to the other man nearby.

Nearby residents were stunned but supported their neighbor's actions.

"At that time in the morning, if I was in that situation, I might try to do the same thing," Everett Musgrave told News 5. "I am glad he was able to protect himself. That's the big thing. At least he's not hurt."

"He's old school," Lisa Garner said of her neighbor. "My grandfather would have done the same thing.

"It bothers me because we have children. It bothers me that anybody would intrude into your home," Garner said.

Musgrave had a message for anybody thinking about breaking into somebody's home.

"Yeah, don't pick the wrong door," Musgrave said.

AirCare helicopters flew the men to Grant County Hospital. Their names and conditions have not been released.

LMAO...The funny thing about this story is...I have a LOT of relatives in Dry Ridge, Kentucky (about 40 miles from my house)...And people should KNOW that you don't go kicking down doors in 'Redneck Territory'......Especially at 5 O'Clock in the morning!...Hell, you'd get shot just for KNOCKING on somebody's door at 5am...HaHaHa

I think what he did was very and it proves two don't mess with rednecks and that the police should maybe start going around looking after the people unless they all got guns and if they are like that 79 year old guy!
