Description
MATTHEWS, Justice. OPINION. On the night of September 27, 1976, Michael Grant was visiting a friend, Jary Crutchfield, at his home in Bethel. Crutchfield received a telephone call informing him that Phil Lacey had entered the ice cream parlor Crutchfield managed. Since Lacey had been forbidden to go there by Crutchfield because of his past behavior toward female employees, Crutchfield decided to drive to the ice cream parlor and Grant accompanied him. When they arrived, they found that Lacey had gone and decided to look for him at the Wild Goose Saloon. They entered the saloon, separated, and Crutchfield found Lacey. The two had an animated Discussion and left the saloon, followed by an interested crowd of spectators, to engage in a fist fight. Lacey then drew a pistol and pointed it at Crutchfield. Crutchfield yelled to Grant, who was standing in the crowd of onlookers, "Mike hes got a gun, hes got a gun." Grant ran across the street to his house, grabbed a shotgun, loaded it with one shell and ran back toward where he had last seen Lacey and Crutchfield. On the way, Grant heard one shot, which he assumed was discharged from Laceys pistol. When he arrived, he confronted Lacey, who was still holding the pistol. He did not see Crutchfield and assumed that he had been shot. According to Grant he pointed his shotgun at Lacey and told him to drop the pistol or he would shoot. Lacey fled around to the back of the saloon, but was intercepted by Grant who again warned him to stop or he would shoot. Lacey then headed into a swamp in near total darkness. Grant, intending, as he testified, to frighten Lacey into stopping, discharged his firearm after losing sight of Lacey. The police arrived soon thereafter and Grant informed them that he had Lacey pinned down in the swamp. The police found Lacey lying in knee-deep water and transported him to the hospital because he appeared to be having cramps. At the hospital, it was discovered that Lacey was suffering from minor wounds caused by shotgun pellets.
