PORT HURON, MI -- A 31-year-old Port Huron woman shot a man in the neck Sunday morning after she claimed he tried to break into her home.

The woman’s neighbor in the 900 block of Huron Avenue in Port Huron called police at 5:07 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 28, to report that a disorderly male was yelling for help in the street.

Minutes later, a female resident of a home on the block, called 911 stating she had shot someone trying to break into her home. She was home alone with a small child, according to a Port Huron Police Department news release.

Port Huron Police arrived and found a 35-year-old male Richmond resident shot in the neck at the corner of Huron Avenue and Beers Street.

Officers provided medical attention until Tri-Hospital EMS arrived and transported him to McLaren Port Huron Hospital, police said. He was later transferred to McLaren Macomb Hospital and is in stable condition.

No additional injuries were reported. The female shooter was interviewed and released. She did not know the male intruder, police said.

She needs to work on her aiming and grouping.

Yep. As my lawyer and several LEO friends once told me: never injure 'em, make sure you kill 'em. They cannot testify in criminal court against you and estates settle for less.
