Burglar Hit In Head With Shoehorn By Elderly Man Sentenced To Prison

JUNEAU, Wis. -- A burglar hit in the head with a shoehorn by an elderly man during a break-in in Dodge County received a six-year sentence in prison.

Gary Wells, of Milwaukee, pleaded no contest to burglary. He was also sentenced to five years extended supervision.

An 85-year-old Lebanon man hit Wells with a shoehorn last December when he demanded money and threatened him. The man, who was in bed, cursed at Wells, told him to leave and threatened to shoot him before hitting him on the head.

Wells and an accomplice left the scene.

Should have shot him. Then there is only one side of the story.

Sounds like the burglar got probation. WTF!

What is the big deal??? Guy breaks in, gets hit by a shoe horn, gets caught pleads guilty, gets 6 years in jail, plus 5 years probation when he gets out. Might be a bit steep, but seems like the system worked pretty well.

lol...that is funny

i read the article and thought Wells (bad man) was sentenced

but you thought the old guy was sentenced to prison

and i read it twice as a result
started scratching my head, read it again, called up a friend asked him to read it
we both came up with the same conclusion
the old guy didn't get in trouble
but then I
came back to the thread and read on

Mo just passed the law, the old man could have legally blown the guys head off and faced no reprecussions.
