Another case of a person with a gun but without any knowledge of the laws.
Don’t shoot at a suspect running away.
Don’t touch, much less dispose of evidence (spent brass).
Not calling 911 immediately indicates to the cops that you don’t really care about a guy dying on your watch.
Either the shooter is totally ignorant of his responsibilities under the law or there is more to this story.

Maybe he has short term memory loss ... my Dad could shoot a guy and immediately forget about it until the memory finally gets into his long term memory. He used to recall stuff he did the day before while not being able to recall something he did 30 seconds ago.
Don’t shoot at a suspect running away.
Depends on where you live. We had the DA on the local news emphatically state you can shoot any intruder in your home, even if that person has his back to you and is trying to leave.
Old man may be as near blind as I am. If I shoot withon ten to fifteen yards I can see if I hit. Beyond that distance there are no targets. If I shoot beyond ten or fifteen yards, anybody’s guess if I hit something in the hedgerow or field.
#1 Rule: Don’t talk to police!

Also, beyond the initial call, don’t talk to police. Second call to lawyer.
That's why they have trials instead of newspaper lynchings.....
