A Florida man was taken into custody after pointing a gun at two people who backed up into his driveway so they can make a u-turn.
Terry Vetsch, 60, was arrested Saturday afternoon and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Flagler County deputies say Vetsch came out of his home with a gun and used it to hit the victims’ back seat window. Deputies say when one of the victims got out of the vehicle to approach Vetsch, Vetsch pointed the gun at the victim’s head.
In an interview with deputies, Vetsch even admitted he pulled the gun out. According to Vetsch, he claims the reason he did it was because he thought it was his neighbor pulling into his driveway and they have had issues with each other in the past.
A lot of shootings have taken place in neighborhoods when people go into someones driveway by accident. We previously shared a story how, 20-year-old Kaylin A. Gillis was in a car with three other individuals looking for a friend’s residence when they drove up to a house on Patterson Hill Road. Kevin D. Monahan, 65, came out on the porch and fired two shots after they attempted to turn the car around. Investigators claimed no one from the group attempted to enter Monahan’s home before the shooting, and one of the shots struck Gillis as she was sitting in the car.

After the incident, her pals attempted to notify 911 in a neighboring town because Washington County had minimal mobile service. Despite the fact that medical personnel attempted CPR on Gillis, she died as a result of her injuries. Monahan was “uncooperative” with deputies, according to Washington County Sheriff Jeffrey Murphy, and it took police an hour to arrest him.
“Monahan was uncooperative with the investigation and refused to exit his residence to speak with police. He was later taken into custody with the assistance of the New York State Police Special Operation Response Team after several hours.”
Murphy said Monahan had no reason to fire a weapon toward Gillis and her friends.
“She was an innocent young girl who was out with friends looking for another friend’s house. There was no reason for Mr. Monahan to feel threatened,”
