Our lawyers in Greensboro NC, recently received an update with reference to the painter who was shot in High Point. The occupant thought someone was attempting to break into his apartment and go his firearm for protection.
The man in the house said the person at the door was pulling the door handle and attempting to manipulate the deadbolt with some sort of tool. According to our Lawyers in Greensboro, the man feeling his life was in danger decided to shoot at the person at the door. He injured the man, but the man did not suffer life-threatening personal injuries.
