Toledoan, 92, mistakenly shoots officer

Toledoan, 92, mistakenly shoots officer

This is one of those stories where I can only shake my head and be glad nobody was killed. Lot of pieces of the story to fit together. Kinda' have to read the whole thing and then put it together. But they did take Grannie's gun.

"Toledo police Lt. Randy Pepitone wanted to make sure Annie Huddleston was all right inside her central Toledo home.

Ms. Huddleston thought the man outside prying open her front door lock Thursday was a burglar.

Just as Lieutenant Pepitone was opening the door, Ms. Huddleston, 92, steadied in her hand her late husband's .357 Magnum revolver, and pulled the trigger just once.........."
