Bellingham boy, 10, defends mom with BB gun


BELLINGHAM, Wash. —
Bellingham police say a 10-year-old boy defended his mother from an attacker by shooting him in the face with a BB rifle as many as four times.

The woman and boy were able to flee to a neighbor's home Tuesday morning and call for help.

The man rents a room in the woman's home and came home drunk and angry. Police say he kicked in a bedroom door and started choking the woman.

Police say her 10-year-old son hit him with a board and then shot him in the face with the pump-action BB rifle as he grappled with the woman.

The 45-year-old man was treated at a hospital and arrested for investigation of assault and making death threats.

This happened about 50 miles North of me. It's big news on all the local stations. Too bad the kid didn't have a Sheridan or Gamo .22 running at 1200FPS. The kids a hero in my book!
