76-Year-Old Shoots 27-Year-Old On His Property At 3AM After Having Rock Thrown At Him

A 76-year-old Fort Worth homeowner shot a 27-year-old man who allegedly trespassed and assaulted him early Monday morning. Police are still investigating, but no arrests have been made yet.


FORT WORTH, TX (2-minute read) — An early morning confrontation on Monday in Fort Worth led to a homeowner shooting a man who had allegedly trespassed on his property. According to law enforcement, the incident occurred shortly before 3:30 a.m. on Museum Way near Picasso Drive.

The homeowner, a 76-year-old man, informed police that the situation escalated when the 27-year-old trespasser assaulted him. The younger man reportedly threw a rock at the homeowner, prompting him to fire his firearm in self-defense. The bullet struck the alleged assailant in the leg.

Authorities were called to the scene, and the injured man was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. According to KDFW-TV, no arrests have been made in connection with the shooting, and law enforcement officials are continuing their investigation into the altercation.

In Texas, homeowners have legal protections under certain circumstances to defend themselves when they feel threatened, especially when someone unlawfully enters their property. However, the investigation will determine whether the shooting meets the necessary conditions for self-defense, which often includes an immediate threat to personal safety or serious harm.

Such incidents underscore the importance of understanding local self-defense laws, particularly when it comes to the use of firearms for home protection. In some cases, homeowners may have a legal right to use force, including lethal force, if they believe their lives are in danger or they are being attacked.

Safety Tip: Always be aware of local and state laws regarding self-defense and the use of firearms on your property. Understanding when and how you can legally defend yourself is essential for responsible firearm ownership.
