FL SHERIFF SAYS MAN WILL 'ABSOLUTELY NOT' FACE CHARGES FOR DEFENDING HOME WITH 'AK-47-STYLE' GUN

A Florida homeowner will "absolutely not" face charges after firing an "AK-47-style gun" at suspected home invaders, a local sheriff said.

"He started shooting for his own protection, to get them out of his house and to protect himself," Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons said of the recent shooting in a video address.

Simmons said three men, including one armed with a gun, entered a home in Escambia County just ahead of midnight on July 7. The homeowner was present when the three men entered the house and pulled out a handgun from his waistband, but dropped the firearm.

The homeowner was able to run and retrieve another weapon, an "AK-47-style gun," while one of the suspects picked up the victim's handgun.
