CONROE, Texas -- He served his country for nine years, but this time, a U.S. Marine from Conroe was ready to open fire in his own backyard.
Sam Michaels awoke to the sound of his truck starting up last Friday night around 10:30 p.m.
Michaels looked down from his second story window and saw his truck backing up. He grabbed his 9 millimeter handgun and ran downstairs as quickly as he could.
Michaels chased after the truck, but the criminal sped out of the gated Conroe complex.
“I’m obviously trained around weapons. I’m not just going to shoot blindly into something. I’m going to see my target before I fire,” Michaels said. “If I would’ve caught them then yeah, the scene would’ve been different. He would’ve been dead.”
Michaels said the 2005 white Dodge Cummins Diesel meant a great deal to him and his wife.
