Do not say anything to the police other than, “I was in fear for my life”, or similar statement that that you were acting in self defense or protecting the life of another person. That’s all. Do NOT talk about the incident any further. NOTHING until you have your lawyer present. The police are NOT your friends at this point.

A very important point. I would modify the statement to "I was in fear for my life. I wish my attorney present before speaking further". See video by lawyer: don't talk to police.

In any situation where you had to draw on a thug and they run, it's good to call 911 and report that you were attacked. One tactic by thugs is to call 911 and claim "this crazy woman drew a gun on us". Whoever makes the call controls the narrative.

I recommend exercising your right to remain silent. Tell them your name and your attorney’s phone number and then shut up. Ain’t no way you’re not going to jail.
