TimBoettcher Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Milford teen defends home from burglars with Airsoft pistol, shotgun, spotlight By Jonathan Oosting | MLive.com October 02, 2009, 7:07AM Josh Cichy, 13, arrived back at his Milford home Friday night just in time to scare off two would-be burglars. "I walked down the hall and I saw two guys at the door and window," Josh, home alone at the time, later told Fox 2. A trained hunter and fan of the Military Channel, he ran to his bedroom to grab weapons. As Josh tells it, he used a high-powered hunting spotlight to blind the intruders, shot one of them in the face with his Airsoft pistol and then used his 20-gauge shotgun to fire a warning shot in the air. "I shot at the one dude," he said. " I think I got him right in the face -- on the side." The quick thinking scared away the intruders, who were long gone by the time police arrived. " I'm legal with all my stuff, Josh said. "I go hunting with my dad and friends. So, I know what to do. "I wasn't really scared, but at the end I was shaking because of my adrenalin I guess."

cconn Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Good story, but I woulda used the 20 gauge instead of the airsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
