Robber takes homeowner's gunWe also post ALL instances that we find of unsuccessful use of firearms in self-defense.
An elderly man was assaulted in his home by a robber who took the man's shotgun when the homeowner tried to defend himself.
James Wortman, 82, was awakened early Tuesday by somebody breaking into his house, in the 5800 block of East 19th Street.He reached for his shotgun. The intruder quickly grabbed the gun, pointed it at Wortman and demanded money.
The man ransacked the house but found no money. He left the house taking only the shotgun. Wortman was not injured.
