Man grabs robber's shotgun
Clifford Davis wrestled a shotgun away from a potential robber and fired twice at the young man, scaring him and two companions away, Murfreesboro Police reported Monday.
Davis answered a knock at the door about 11:30 p.m. Thursday at his Colony House apartment on Huntington Drive near Highland Avenue. He was met by three males, with one pointing a shotgun at him.
Davis grabbed the shotgun and wrestled with the suspect to take control of the gun, Officer Amy Cassidy reported. Davis pushed the suspect outside his apartment and onto the hood of a car.
When the suspect threatened to kill him, Davis worked his finger into the trigger guard and fired into the air. The suspects backed away. Davis fired another round and they retreated.
Davis described the suspects as three young black males about 16 to 18 years old.
Police recovered the shotgun and two spent shells.
