This worked out fine, but I’d rather that warning shot was in the ground at his feet.
My grandmother shot* a black man at her door at 2am drunk at wrong door pounding to get in
1987 Jackson Miss and she was 80 and had likely been into some Evan Williams as was her wont
She had my grandfathers old 1911 in .38 Super...
She fired at his foot and he fainted ....she decided not to kill him last moment when she suspected he was drunk
Jackson’s first ever black gold badge detective lived next door and heard the shot and ran over to help her drag the body inside were he deceased so it’d be legal
He survived.
I bought Charlie the detective a gallon of Dewars his preferred whisky the next day
She carried that pistol everywhere
And slept with it
I have it now
Your grandmother was awesome.
