Robbers Break Into Home, Shoot Grandmother – The 12-Year-Old Grandson Makes The Ultimate Revenge
It’s difficult to imagine that someone could be so harmless as to use violence against the feeble and elderly. Such was the case with two armed intruders who broke into the home of a 73-year-old North Carolina woman named Linda Ellis. Incredibly, a hero arose in the most unlikely of candidates.
A pair of masked robbers forced their way into an elderly woman’s home, demanding money and subsequently shooting her. However, they soon came face-to-face with her 12-year-old grandson.
The Goldsboro Police Department is investigating a deadly robbery where a 12-year-old shot at an armed suspect in self-defense, according to Goldsboro police.
Police responded to a shooting at an apartment on 402 S. William Street in Goldsboro on Saturday around 12:30 a.m. and found 73-year-old Linda Ellis suffering from a gunshot wound.
Police said a 12-year-old who lived in the apartment with Ellis is believed to have shot at the masked suspects with a gun in self-defense, according to the investigation. They say two masked suspects forced their way into the apartment and demanded money from Ellis and shot her.
Another person, Khalil Herring, was found suffering from a gunshot wound near the intersection of William Street and Elm Street.
Ellis and Herring were both transported to Wayne UNC Health Care but Herring died from his injuries. Ellis is in stable condition, according to police.
Police said evidence suggests Herring was one of the two masked intruders and was shot during the robbery.
The Goldsboro Police Department does not plan on charging the 12-year-old juvenile that fired at the suspects. The investigation is ongoing.
“They came in the house, I open the door, I open it, and they came in there…. One guy had a gun. They just put me down on the ground,” Randolph Bunn, the woman’s son, told ABC News. “I don’t know why they shot her.”
Randolph Bunn, Ellis’s son, and the boy’s great-uncle, explained that the boy likely saved the lives of all three of the residents with his quick thinking and courage.
“[The intruder] just shot his grandma… He would have shot him too, he would’ve shot me too, he would’ve killed us all,” Bunn continued.
The grandson is an example of a well-raised brave young man!
