A 66-year-old Vietnam veteran, Robert Morgan, confronted a driver when she crashed her vehicle into his yard. The accident happened around midnight on Thursday on French Avenue. Morgan woke up when he heard somebody crashing through his fence. He grabbed his pistol and went out to see what happened.
It was then that Morgan saw the driver was attempting to flee the scene. She kept trying to get out of the fence but instead hit Morgan. Morgan fired a round when he fell to the ground. After hitting Morgan, the woman tried to run away. However, a cop came and apprehended her.
Morgan received minor scrapes and bruises due to the accident. Now the woman faces charges, one including aggravated battery.
