The armed robbers, John Grossklaus, 28, Larry Shaver, 28, and Whitney Kabiru, 23, worked together to gain access to the elderly man’s home. Kabiru approached the home and knocked on the elderly man’s door, asking to use his phone for an emergency. When he allowed her to enter, her accomplices, dressed in dark clothes, burst into the home, flashed a gun and demanded the homeowner surrender his valuables.
Rather than become a victim, the 80-year-old homeowner drew his own weapon and shot at the three armed robbers. |

| This is why a young woman pounding on Ted Wafer's door in the middle of the night scared him so badly. |

This article says he "shot at the three armed robbers"
but there's no indication he shot at the woman. He fired a total of three rounds. All three rounds hit the two men.
And it's stretching it a bit to say they were "three armed robbers" since they shared one pellet gun.
Anyway, good shooting old timer. You're an exemplar for us all. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
