A home invasion suspect was shot in the ass by the victims of the invasion. He entered the home wearing a police vest though sources did not say, many are wondering if the vest provided any sort of ballistic protection. If however that is the case it would just go to highlight why there is a need for pistol ammunition capable of defeating armor to be available to the public.
According to CBS4Indy police arrested 34-year-old Carl Simion for criminal confinement and impersonating a public servant.
Officers say he was wearing a police vest when he tried to hold-up two men and a woman inside a home on Indy’s southeast side. Police records said they also found handcuffs.
This happened around midnight in the 9000 block of East McGregor Road near South Franklin Road and East Southport Road.
Police say one of the people inside the home pulled out a gun and shot Simion.
Simion fled from the home, but police found him. Medics transported him to the hospital to be treated for a gunshot wound to his buttocks. Police say it is not a life-threatening injury.
