Description
When Cable Jones, the victim, woke up on the morning of February 8, 1987, he was not alone in his bedroom. There was a strange man standing in the room next to his desk holding a pair of Jones pants. After Jones turned on a light, the intruder raised the pants to cover his face, and then fled the room. Jones looked out the bedroom doorway and saw the man pass through his kitchen. At that point, Jones armed himself with a .357 revolver from his closet and followed the man out the front door and down the street. Jones yelled "halt" twice and then fired his revolver into a nearby pile of dirt to try to stop the fleeing man, but to no avail. The intruder finally ran out of sight, and Jones went home to call the police. The operator told him that the police were already on their way, so Jones took a few moments to put his pants on. While doing that, he noticed that his billfold, containing roughly $600, was gone.
