According to police, at around 1 a.m. Monday, authorities responded to the home on the 1800 block of Horace Avenue in Abington for a report of a man shot following a home invasion.
Once they arrived at the home, investigators met with a woman who told them she had just gotten home from the casino when an unknown man forced his way into her residence and pointed a gun at her. The man, identified by police as Shephard, allegedly pushed the woman on the ground and grabbed her purse from the dining room table.
Police said the woman yelled for help, waking up her son who was in the back bedroom. According to police, the woman's son grabbed his legally owned gun and ran out to see what the commotion was. After the son saw Shepard had a firearm on him, police said, he fired two shots at him in defense of his mother's safety.
