Rural homeowners in Canada<\/a> are pushing back after a neighbor is arrested for defending his property;<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a rural person, a city person \u2014 it\u2019s property rights,\u201d said Rod Hertz, who attended the rally. \u201cYou have to defend yourself, you should have the right to defend yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Edouard Maurice woke up early Feb. 24 to find two suspected trespassers rummaging through vehicles on his property.<\/p>\n

Shots were fired and Ryan Watson was taken to hospital with a gunshot wound to his arm. He was charged with trespassing by night, theft under $5,000 from a motor vehicle, possession of methamphetamine and failure to comply with probation.<\/p>\n

Maurice was charged with aggravated assault, pointing a firearm and careless use of a firearm \u2014 charges locals say aren\u2019t fair.<\/p>\n

Derek Ully lives on a farm in the area and says rural crime has been on the rise. While he believes no one should have to fire a shot to protect their property, he said, \u201cI don\u2019t know what the answer is, but something has got to happen to make this stop.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“They feel like sitting ducks because of the times and distances to get a response or there may be no resources available.”<\/p>\n

Oel is a councillor with the M.D. of Foothills and president of the High Country Rural Crime Watch Association.<\/p>\n

The association had a meeting Thursday night and Edouard Maurice was top of mind. He was charged with shooting a trespasser on his rural property in the early hours of Feb. 24.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In Phoenix, Arizona<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The alleged shooter told authorities they heard two people arguing in a car parked on 31st Avenue. After listening to the couple’s argument, the suspect decided to intervene because it became “so disturbing,” a police spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

The man took his gun to confront the man and tell him to stop yelling, police said. The 23-year-old victim got out of his car and the suspect was able to calm him down before he became agitated again and punched the suspect in the face.<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old man shot the victim in response to the assault, authorities said. His wife then called 911 to report the incident.<\/p>\n

Witnesses tell ABC15 that a passerby attempted to perform CPR on the injured man before paramedics arrived at the scene. However, the man died at the scene.<\/p>\n

The alleged shooter was taken into custody but was released. An investigation is ongoing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
