Deputies said the male and female homeowners said they were sleeping in their house \u2014 along with their infant and toddler \u2014 when they heard noises of footsteps outside and saw an exterior motion light go on.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe husband went into their children\u2019s bedroom and saw an unknown man standing in the window well; the husband told his wife to call 911 and to move their children to safety, then he pulled back the curtain and saw the suspect was crouched down with his face within inches of the glass. The husband told the deputies he was in fear for his family\u2019s safety; he reportedly yelled at the suspect to stop and then fired four shots, striking him twice.\u201d<\/p>\n

The suspect is believed to have burglarized the shed of a home about a block down the street earlier that morning, the department said, and he was recently released from jail after serving nearly a month-long sentence for vehicle prowling.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Upon arrival, officers discovered two victims holding the suspect on the floor and restraining his arms.<\/p>\n

Investigation revealed, Duane Anthony Shephard, 24, of Waldorf, went behind the counter inside the convenience store and began taking packs of cigarettes. An employee told Shephard that he could not be behind the counter and that he needed to leave. Shephard began to repeatedly strike the employee over the head and in the face, using his cell phone as a weapon, leaving multiple cuts on the employee\u2019s face and head. A bystander was in line at the time and attempted to pull Shephard away from the employee, but Shephard turned and began assaulting him as well. The two victims were able to restrain Shephard until officers arrived.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Officer Simon Drobik said around 5 p.m., a woman was driving her daughter to the airport when her estranged husband, Qian Ming, 66, intentionally crashed his truck into hers.<\/p>\n

According to APD, Ming then got out of his vehicle and fired a couple of rounds into the wife\u2019s truck, striking his daughter on the shoulder.<\/p>\n

At that time, Officer Drobik said a 34-year-old Good Samaritan pulled up to what he thought was a crash. He witnessed Ming beating his daughter with a gun in the middle of the street.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce he started walking up, he saw that there was a male violently pistol-whipping a female in the street,\u201d Officer Drobik said. \u201cHe got out of his vehicle and had his firearm on him and told that male to stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when the Good Samaritan, who is not being named at this time because he\u2019s currently not facing any charges, told police Ming pointed the gun in his direction.<\/p>\n

Police say the man then fired at least one shot, hitting and killing Ming.<\/p>\n

\u201cMom in the hospital said, \u2018He saved our lives,’\u201d Officer Drobik said. \u201cYou can\u2019t get a stronger statement than that. So she knew it. Daughter knows it and good thing he took that type of action.\u201d<\/p>\n

Officers did detain the man for questioning. He was released later that night. Officer Drobik said the man is a 12-year veteran of the National Guard.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
