BALTIMORE (WJZ)—A 24-year-old Navy veteran is in intensive care after being shot by city police Thursday night. His family tells WJZ that he was testing out a shotgun after being the victim of a home invasion.

Mike Schuh spoke exclusively to the man’s father.

Police say officers responded to reports of shots fired Thursday night outside a home in the 8700-block of Danville Avenue.

“The went to the rear of the location to investigate. They encountered an individual that was armed with a shotgun. During the course of that encounter, one of our officers discharged, striking the suspect,” said Sgt. Eric Kowalczyk, police spokesman.

I don't blame the cops I blame the dog owner. Maybe the home owner should have had him on a chain or fenced in? Oh, wait.................

I'm not defending the cops here by any stretch, but this doesn't look like a wise place to be shooting a gun(of any type) in your backyard in this first place:

I don't think this guy deserved what he got, but I've got next to zero sympathy for him, either, because that was beyond stupid to expect to fire a shotgun in the FUCKING CITY LIMITS OF BALTIMORE, the king shithole of all shithole cities, and expect, what - nothing to happen?

Well, apparently, very many of the genuine criminals/killers in Baltimore somehow manage to get away with it ...

i wonder if he knew that in the city limits you cant fire a gun?

im from the country and moved to a city about 2 years ago. the first thing i wanted to do was target practice but the wife told me the law. i seriously didnt know that firing a gun on my property wasnt allowed. now i do and understand why. but even at that, i want to knows if the cops gave him any warning before firing on him. i doubt it.
