“We made the mistake of washing the car at night while the garage door was open, and two guys walked up to my father and produced a firearm. They then proceeded to rack the slide, and my father realised their firearm was empty chamber. He then grabbed his own firearm (a .380 Makarov with 14 rounds) from the front seat. The suspect with the gun fired and his bullet struck the frame of the window that my father was hiding behind, ricocheted, was later found embedded in the garage door. My father fired seven times through the window and the suspects fled. Police came within 3 minutes (they were in the area looking for a stolen car), asked a few questions, took a statement, and left. While the incident happened in 2011, we never heard back from the police regarding the incident.”
