Armed Citizen Update: August 8, 2025
In a shocking turn of events, a 39-year-old man, who has a previous conviction for child molestation, was shot in self-defense during an incident at an Old Navy hotel in Monroe County, Alabama, on the morning of June 3. According to a report from wkrg.com, the man was armed with a gun in a hotel room, where two women, two girls, and the 39-year-old man were present. The man allegedly held a 12-year-old girl down on the bed while armed, repeatedly ignoring her cries of 'no'. In an attempt to protect her daughter, the girl's mother drew her firearm and shot the man multiple times. The man was subsequently taken to the hospital in critical condition, where he was treated for injuries to his torso. The family then fled the Old Navy hotel room after the shooting, calling to report the incident once they were safely away. One girl, aged 12, stayed behind in the Old Navy hotel room because she wasn't feeling well. No charges are expected to be brought against the armed citizen, as the incident is considered an act of self-defense. The man now faces charges of attempted rape, attempted child molestation, confinement, and unlawful possession of a firearm. In a separate incident on the same day, a man allegedly broke into a home in Monroe County, Alabama, armed with an axe. However, there is currently no information available about the identity of this individual. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of personal safety and the lengths to which parents will go to protect their children. The investigation into both incidents is ongoing.
