Man flies from new Zealand to meet teen; gets shot

He survived. He's at the local hospital.
Probably should've put an extra bullet or two in him.

A New Zealand man who was shot while breaking into a woman’s Goochland County home had met her 14-year-old daughter online and suddenly arrived uninvited after methodically planning his trip to the U.S., Goochland’s sheriff said Monday.
The man, Troy George Skinner, 25, was found with duct tape, pepper spray and a camouflage folding clip knife with a 2.75-inch blade, Sheriff James Agnew said during a news briefing at the sheriff’s office. The duct tape and the blade had been purchased from a Walmart on Friday, the day of the attack.
quote:
Agnew said investigators believe Skinner first made contact with the 14-year-old Goochland girl three to four months earlier through Discord, a voice-over-internet application that allows video gamers to communicate via their personal computer or smartphone.
quote:
They thought that was the end of it until they saw him at the back basement door, which is situated under the deck,” Agnew said. After spotting the family inside, Skinner told the mother through the door, “I need some help; I’ve hitchhiked here 30 miles.”
“He got a brick and attempted to break that door down,” the sheriff said. “This 6-foot-1-inch, 275-pound man attempted to violently get inside her house.”
quote:
Skinner then reappeared on the back deck and again tried to get inside by throwing a landscaping brick through a glass door. The mother warned Skinner several times that she had a gun. After he broke the glass, reached inside and attempted to unlatch the door, she fired twice. One round struck him in the neck, the sheriff said.
He survived. He's at the local hospital.

Justin Verlander is from Goochland, went to Goochland High. Makes me laugh every time I see the name.

Would not have been upset had she fired an extra two rounds...
Is something to be said about watching what your teenage daughter is doing online? I am all for privacy, but no young girl should be communicating with an adult male (a random adult male)

I'd have let his arse get all the way through the door and then I'd have put a lot more than 2 rounds into him and they for damn sure wouldn't have been .22's.

Too bad he lived. Once free, he will try it again.

He probably would have done some raping and stabbing had he flown to a country without a 2nd amendments. He may even have been able to do some raping and stabbing had he flown to Chicago, Maryland, NYC, etc.

Why would you let him get all the way through the door? If you want to kill him, breaking the window and sticking his arm in to inlock the door is ample for self defense

Is Goochland next to Taintville or Grundleburg?
