Police have ruled a Florida man’s actions self-defense after he shot a felon who allegedly attempted to abduct his wife. According to Fox News affiliate WTVT-TV, citing the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office, Nicholas Palomo, a 36-year-old felon who had previously gone to prison for kidnapping and other crimes, attempted to abduct a woman who was walking her dog in Bradenton, Florida, on New Year's Day.
The woman managed to run away from Palomo's car and warned her husband, who went outside to confront Palomo. Detectives say that Palomo began acting in a threatening way before advancing towards the husband. That's when, according to police, he allegedly opened fire on Palomo.
