| | Neighbor Shoots Other Neighbor in Self Defense (LA)
OpSD --The neighbor told deputies that he came to the residence because he heard a disturbance and came to see if he could help.

| Police say victim fired gun to ward off attacker (ME)
OpSD --The men left the house and got in a vehicle to leave when Haskell allegedly came out and ran toward the vehicle with something in his hand. One of the men leaving said he had his own handgun and fired a warning shot to ward off Haskell, according to the affidavit. Assistant District Attorney Jeffrey Baroody said that the man who fired off the shot would not be charged, saying the state would not be able to disprove self-defense.
