Had the bullets hit those kids there would have been a lot of Weepinbell. Story out of Flagler County, Florida:
Two teens looking for Pokemon were mistaken as thieves looking for a house to rob and ended up getting shot at on Saturday.
A man was sleeping in his Palm Coast area home about 1:30 a.m. when a loud noise woke him up. The 37-year-old looked outside and spotted a white car parked in the road outside his Primrose Lane house, said Flagler County Sheriff's Office Jim Troiano.
He grabbed his handgun and went outside to investigate. As he came up to the car, he overheard one of the two teens say "did you get anything?" Troiano said.
That's when the man stepped in front of the vehicle, thinking they had possibly broken into his home, raised his gun and ordered them not to move, officials said.
The vehicle sped towards him and he moved out of its path. He then fired rounds at the vehicle because he said it "was attempting to strike him," Troiano said.
The next morning, a mother of one of the teens called authorities to report what had happened.
When they got home they checked to see if they were injured or if there was any damage to the vehicle. They didn't see anything and decided not to report it because they thought "it was someone trying to scare them," Troiano said. Cont.
