65-year-old New Yorker charged for blowing away would-be mugger who allegedly rushed him despite warnings
[The Blaze] The 65-year-old man who blew away a would-be mugger Wednesday in Queens escaped with his life and property, but may now stand to lose his freedom.
Charles Foehner was charged with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a firearm after voluntarily turning himself in following a fatal shooting at 123-20 82nd Avenue early Wednesday morning. Foehner, who had a clean record, has an active NYPD firearms permit for a shotgun — just not for the revolver that may have saved his life.
Extra to the weapons charges, the New York Daily News indicated authorities are now looking into whether Foehner should similarly be hit with murder charges.
Outside a parking garage in Kew Gardens, the 65-year-old was allegedly confronted by 32-year-old Cody Gonzalez, born Cody Baum.
