After Catching 'Peeping Tom' Outside Daughter's Window, Father Epically Executes His 2nd Amendment Right
A Texas man who confronted a peeping Tom outside his daughter’s bedroom window this week told police he fired his gun after the voyeur lunged at him with a knife.
The incident took place around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday at an apartment complex in northwestern San Antonio.
According to KENS-TV, the daughter spotted the unknown man through her window and ran to tell her father.
San Antonio Police say a father who told them he was forced to shoot at a man that was standing outside of his daughter’s window is not expected to face any charges.
