the scene.
booking back, Stacy knows
he did the right thing that
Sunday afternoon and has
put those events behind
him.
“I’ve shot guns all my life,”
Stacy said. “When you pull
on a human being — it’s a
different story. I feel like I
did help him [Means] and if
I had to do it again, I would
help out anyone I can in a
deal like that. No regrets.”
BAA invaded by monsters, cupcakes

here quick. I have a dead
body in my yard,”’ Stacy
said. “Thinking he was jok-
ing with me, I replied well, I
have four or five laying here
in my yard.”
Shortly after, Stacy real-
ized his neighbor wasn’t jok-
ing. He quickly hung up the
phone and grabbed his gun
and went to his neighbor’s
RV.
“Even though I had an
AR15 by my recliner and
a Colt 5 on the wall, I just
automatically grabbed the
pistol,” Stacy said. “I thought
— why do I need a gun for?”
Stacy start walking toward
his neighbor’s RV when he
saw Charles Conner walk
out of his RV with a rifle in
his hand.
“I thought, my gosh did he
go off the wall,” Stacy said.
“When I got to my neigh-
bor’s yard, he pointed to
where David was.”
While he made his way to
the front of his neighbor’s
RV, Stacy saw the body of
Iris Valentina Calaci laying in
front of Connor’s RV. Stacy
continued to look for Con-
nor from his position and
shortly after heard sirens.
“Sgt. Means was maybe
about 40 feet from him
[Connor] when he tried to
get out of his car,” Stacy
said. “As soon as he got out
of that car, Charlie just start-
ed shooting towards him
but he never did hit him.”
After observing the scene,
Stacy noticed right away
that Sgt. Steven Means could
not get to Connor from
the position he was sta-
tioned and began to decide
whether he should assist.
Although he was 166 feet
away, Stacy knew he needed
to do something.
“The last thing I saw be-
fore I pulled the trigger was
a young man who probably
had a wife and kids,” Stacy
said. “If he [Connor] killed
him that day, his kids will
grow up without their dad.”
Thinking Conner had the
advance on Means, Stacy
took his position and start-
ed to fire towards Conner.
Shortly after firing towards
him, Conner stopped firing
at Means and started firing
at Stacy.
“I saw him throw another
shell in the rifle and he
turned around and shot at
me,” Stacy said. “It didn’t
hit anywhere close to me,
but it did knock some rocks
around the RV which scat-
tered and hit me.”
As the exchange contin-
ued, Stacy was able to hit
Conner in the thigh, which
