The incident occurred on Father's Day around 9:00 p.m. when a 23-year-old suspect unlawfully entered the family's backyard and began behaving aggressively towards the young girl.
From Breitbart:
Police Chief A.Z. Williams talked with the Johnston County Report and indicated the suspect allegedly “tried to accost” the little girl.
The other children in the back yard ran to the house and told the father what was happening. As they did, the suspect tried to follow them into the house, allegedly grabbing the handle on the door and trying to shake it open.
The father then shot the suspect, killing him.
The News & Observer pointed out the father has not been charged with any crime. Chief Williams intimated it was a simple situation of a father taking action to keep his family safe.
This father undeniably embodies the essence of a true protector.
