Ever had a shotgun pointed at your face?

Wholly shit! I was just subject to a home invasion and got a fuckin shotgun pointed in my face

Heard a knock on the door early this evening and opened it to find 4 friendly chaps sporting a double banger shotgun waiting outside for me. They forced their way in, shoved me on the ground and had the shotty up against the back of my head execution-style

and proceeded to interrogate me, almost like im a terrorist!

They didnt take anything and as it turned out they were after someone else, but man it was a different experience...especially that it happened on my 25th birthday haha!

I must say that the cops did a good job - they arrived like 3min after the 111 call with dogs and heaps of officers and combed the area. Sat through a 4hr statement session and only just got home, but the process gave me renewed faith in the police dept.

Im gonna go now and have a Famous Grouse and coke - but hold the coke!
And probably a mild heart attack.

Are you okay? You might need to have a debrief with good friends. That is nightmare stuff.

**Mom** · 26th June 2009, 07:18

Far out! That is scarey shit. Thank goodness they stopped to check if you were the right man or not.

In the early '70's I was with a friend and we went to visit with her boyfriend in Glen Innes. Now back then it was not quite the revolting place it is today, close but. This guy was boarding with an older lady. We were all sitting there having a coffee when there was a knock at the door, the lady went to answer it. She came back and said there were some guys out there wanting to talk to a bloke, she did not know who they wanted.

My friends b/f went out to find out. Well, these patched Hells Angels were not interested in whether he was the right bloke or the wrong bloke, they set upon him in a big way! Gave him one hell of a beating, kicked him to the ground, got in their cars and raced away. It happened very quickly. When this guy did not come back inside we went to see where he was and found him in a very bad way on the driveway. Cops and ambo called.

I was terrified, I was still a school girl and had never been exposed to the wilder side of life. Turned out they also had the wrong man, the cops did track them down but no charges were ever laid.

Glad you are ok!

Wow! That's scary stuff! Have you stopped shaking, yet?

Home invasion would have to be the worst damn thing to happen, Lucky to survive.

Had a car drive past once firing off shots at us, I saw the two cars, The people, the gun, watched him firing the shots, heard the gun, Fucked if any of it registered until it was over and the cars were 400m away. I barely even moved. I just watched me old mate try and run down the car on foot while they fired at him.

**kiwifruit** · 26th June 2009, 08:03

Just like a dog that chases a car what the fuck was he gonna do with it if he caught it?
Guns being pointed in my general direction scares the shit outta me.(sorry Sarge I happily admit to being a wimp!)

Hope you're all good mate, that must have been one hell of an ordeal!

Many years ago I had a gun held to my head, it wasn't much fun, so I get it.

Take care and be greatful you aren't who they were looking for.
