Oops, Wrong House: A Metro man takes on a man with a knife …

…..wins.

Maurice Johnson was catching up on some sleep Thursday

afternoon when his burglar alarm sounds. He awakes to a man in

his house in the 4300 block of North Blackwelder. “I see a guy in

a big black jacket holding a knife about that size and he tells

me basically turn the alarm off and give me money.” Johnson,

keeping his wits about him, tells the man to follow him to the

back bedroom where there may be some cash. The suspect keeps the

knife held tightly against Johnson as they walk through the

house. Johnson says he pretends to rifle through his drawer to

get money but got his gun instead and fires a shot at the

suspect. The suspect takes off immediately. No word on if the

suspect was hit. (Another reminder to keep the gun holstered or

very close at hand.)
