11-Year-Old Fends Off Mom's Attacker With BB-Gun

[Common Sense Party]

“The suspect grabbed her arms with such force that, at one point, she thought her arm would be broken,” Young said.

It was at this point, Young said, that Sturgen went and retrieved his BB gun to shoot Newman.

“The son levied a couple shots in his direction, three to four times, and that action proved effective,” Young said. “You can’t make this stuff up.”

...

“He kept on hurting my mom, so I went and grabbed my BB gun and I said, ‘Get off my mom. Get off my mom,’” Sturgen told ABC News’ Seattle affiliate KOMO-TV. “And then I shot him with my BB gun.”
The attacker, Paul Newman, received three or four BB gun shots to the face, but was treated for non-life threatening injuries.

Response from Gungeon Grabbers: "You'll shoot your eye out, kid."

1. Good shoot!

Other news sources indicate the "weapon" was a (OMFGBBQ!!1!) "pump-action". Hopefully the mother and son do well in recovery from this traumatic event. The drunk POS woman-beater, well, who cares. Hope he's ridiculed by his new friends (in JAIL) to no end!

2. The scum bag's lucky he still has both eyes.

Good on the kid. I'm glad he had the self-defense tool available and knew how to use it.
