An elderly man shot a 31-year-old man who he said had robbed
him at gunpoint late Friday night in northeast Dallas.
Charlie Andrew Myers III of Dallas was recovering Saturday
from gunshot wounds in the throat and shoulder at Baylor
University Medical Center.
Amor Kerboua, 79, was driving into the parking lot of his
apartment in the 6400 block of Melody Lane, near Northwest
Highway and Skillman Street, when a man police identified as
Mr. Myers approached him, according to a police report. Mr.
Myers put a handgun in Mr. Kerboua’s face and demanded
money, police said.
Thinking it was a joke, Mr. Kerboua pushed the gun away, but
Mr. Myers pointed it at his face again. Mr. Kerboua opened
his back door and handed Mr. Myers a cup containing $242.50.
Mr. Myers then pointed the gun at Mr. Kerboua’s stomach and
told him, “I’m going to shoot you, [expletive],” according
to the police report.
Mr. Kerboua then drew a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson handgun
from his front pocket and shot Mr. Myers in the throat. Mr.
Myers fell to the ground but kept his handgun pointed at Mr.
Kerboua, who then fired two more times into Mr. Myers’
shoulder, police said.
Investigators released Mr. Kerboua, who has a concealed
handgun permit, after concluding that he had shot in
self-defense. Reached Saturday, Mr. Kerboua declined to
comment.
Mr. Myers was expected to face charges after his release
from intensive care.
