A mother shot and wounded a convicted child molester after she found him allegedly trying to rape her 12-year-old daughter inside an Indianapolis motel room Saturday, according to reports.
The mother walked in on Bruce Pierce, of Indianapolis, allegedly on top of her child as the preteen repeatedly said no, leading up to the gunfire at the Baymont Inn, court documents state.
The young victim’s grandmother told police that Pierce had been talking with the 12-year-old online and over the phone, trying to persuade her to leave town with him, according to the documents obtained by WTHR Wednesday.

On a side note, pay attention to who your children are interacting with online.
A mother shot and wounded ................ needs more Range Time.............
More range time is indicated, or a pistol with greater power factor.
There’s more to this story! What was Mom doing with the guy in the lobby. Shoulda made the kid come to the car with her!
Double tap to make sure.
Well at least mom hit the sob.
Kinda like a foul ball, “Well at least you got a piece of it’’.
Ypu. One is fun twice is nice.
Wisdom and insight is severely diminished.

Why was a 12 year old talking to a man online?
Should read, shot, wounded and castrated before the perp slowly bled to death! 😁
Women need to get comfortable with something better than a .22.
Something weird with this story - more to it for sure.
“How Much for the little girl?”
Range time isn’t going to help most people.
It’s the ability to aim correctly under severe stress, which usually doesn’t get trained at ranges by most people. Repetition in a controlled environment only gets you so far. Add on to the fact her child was under this freak, in a struggle. Two moving profiles constantly changing. Not like a stationary paper target 10 yards away.
I am glad she didn’t hit her kid.
Mozambique pattern drills until proficiency is assured.
Sad!
Only wounded.
Seems like a nice family
She doesn’t need more range time immediately. Give her back the gun and a couple cases of ammo. She will finish it.
yes, sounds like an arrangement of some sort. Why was mom with guy in lobby? why the hell did she leave 12 yr old in the room with that guy? Investigate mom ASAP.
There was a movie similar to this news story many years ago starring Margeux Hemingway and Mariel Hemingway with Ann Brancroft— LIPSTICK.
