PENSACOLA, Fla. (WKRG) — The man who fired a shot at an alleged intruder inside his house is talking about what happened early Thursday morning on West Jackson Street.
Keith Fendley says the suspects went into the garage and cut off the power to the home and broke through a window in a door that leads to the kitchen. He and his wife were asleep and the glass breaking woke him up.
“I jumped up, got the gun, came right there,” Fendley said.
He poked his head out into the hall and saw two figures in the dark and they told Fendley to put his hands up. He fired one shot hitting Jamarqus Cromwell and that’s when Cromwell and Tayari Crear ran out of the house. One of them had an airsoft gun with them.
Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons said Keith and his wife’s granddaughter Cynthia Register planned the home invasion.
“Granddaughter does not go in the house,” Simmons said. “Why? Because she knows grandpa has a gun so she decides to stay outside.”
The Fendleys didn’t know until hours later that she orchestrated it and they were shocked. The six suspects were trying to find money to bail a friend out of jail. Register did apologize to her grandparents.
“You don’t know what to think… you just don’t know,” Fendley said. “Now she did call us from the sheriff’s office just upset as could be.”
The suspect who was shot was injured but Fendley said he would never want to kill anyone. He says he had to protect himself and his wife.
“I don’t own anything here that’s worth somebody dying for, but everything I own here is worth me not dying for too,” he said.

A “crear” criminal in the making.
Gee...the new “Brady Bunch” looks awful.
Teens
Count one less grand daughter disowned forever in my book.
Didn’t need to see the pix.
Friggin druggies.
12 gauge. shoot first..redecorate later.
Well, alrighty then.
6 suspects and he just happened to hit the black guy. Clearly a hate crime.
One white girl with her racial diversity. Nice friends.
A veritable Hollywood platoon of criminality.
That’s why responsible parents tell their children the dangers of “falling in with the wrong crowd”. The next thing you know, you have a “friend” that needs bailing out of jail. You get creative and soon you are in jail with them. I can’t wait to see their friends’ next move because now there are about 7 that need bailing out.
Hahaha! Now she's not going to have any friends in addition to no inheritance... Love it!
Well photos weren’t needed of these two - Jamarqus and Tayari - but the other pictures were informative.
I’m thinking Granny and Grandpa need to stop by the lawyer’s office and update their wills.
You know, it was kind of racist of the granddaughter to send in the two with the most melanin.
Is it just me or that's badly written?
At least Diversity Training is working.
Wonder how long it takes Jemarquz to do his hair?
Write her out of your will.
Maybe that was the plan all along.
I heard that the six were all going to try out for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They were supposed to fly to Utah the next day for the test.
