Home Defense in Frisco

Steve Geddie, 24, of Frisco, Texas, had just gotten home from work and was sitting on the toilet when he heard his back door being smashed in. Geddie had only seconds to act. He moved from his bathroom to his bedroom, where he armed himself with a 12 gauge pistol grip Mossberg 500 shotgun that he kept under his mattress for home defense. He chambered a #1 buckshot round.

In his hallway, Geddie encountered a man wearing a red bandanna over his face. Geddie suddenly found a small revolver pointed at his chest. Geddie moved to the inside of the intruder as the intruder fired his weapon. One of two bullets struck Geddie's left shoulder. Geddie dropped his shotgun, then immediately dove after it. He came up firing at a retreating home invader. Geddie's shot flew wild, penetrating his wall with sixteen pellets. The intruder was lucky the shot was wild. "Otherwise he would have had size one buckshot all through his thighs and butt," said Geddie, "I believe that every home owner should be able to be prepared for self preservation in the event that something like this happens."
