Two men were arrested early Tuesday after an incident in the parking lot of the Walmart at 180th and West Center. It started with a man shooting at his daughter's boyfriend.

Police say the 16-year-old girl had been missing since Saturday. The family believed she was with her boyfriend, 19-year-old Mohamed Haya.

Around 12:30 a.m. Tuesday, the father saw Haya in his daughter's car at Walmart. He says Haya swerved at him, and that's when he started shooting.

Police say Haya already has a felony on his record. He and the father will likely face charges.

Commentary:

The TV news this morning said several cars in the parking lot were hit.  This is why I don't shop at Wal-Mart unless I have to.  ::)  Turns out the boyfriend was quite the repeat-offender and the dad says he was just trying to disable the car.  As a father, I'm glad I don't have a daughter.  :angel1:

   I just read this. While  a car swerving at you may be imminent,immediate mortal danger,when he goes past so does the danger. I think he may be in some serious trouble. I can understand a father's feelings however, and he has my sympathy. RJ

FarmerRick:
They had an interview with the father on WOWT a bit ago.  He has hired the "Magic Attorney". 
I won't be making any judgements on whether or not the dad was justified in taking the shots based on the few details released in a news story.

ghknives:
Knowing the few details out lined here I wonder if a jury would convict him. Either way, he's lucky no one else was hurt

SBarry:
By the way, has anyone talked to HuskerGun lately?
