Police in Camden, South Carolina say an armed citizen and concealed carry holder shot a man who broke into his ex-girlfriend’s home, ignoring an order of protection that prohibited him from contact with his former romantic interest.

The incident spanned several hours early Friday morning, when the woman contacted police to let her know that her ex-boyfriend, Qurbitt Lewis Jones, was at her home and trying to break in. By the time police arrived a few minutes later, Jones had already left, and while deputies searched the nearby area for him, he was nowhere to be found.

Unfortunately, not long after the police left, Jones showed up at the woman’s house again, and this time successfully gained entry. Thankfully, the woman’s current boyfriend was in the home, was armed, and acted to defend his girlfriend, her children, and herself.

The man fired shots inside the home, striking Jones, who then fled the home and was apprehended by police a short time later. Jones was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries, and now faces additional legal problems in addition to the injuries he received..

Jones faces charges of burglary, first degree and violation of an order of protection.
