Father Fatally Beat Man Who Followed Daughter Into Bathroom, Judge Issues Sentence
Like a good dad, Melvin Harris pulled up outside of a QuikTrip convenience store in Phoenix to chauffeur around his daughter and two of her friends. When the girls came out, his daughter told him of a horrifying experience that left the protective father absolutely shaken.
If you ask most fathers, they’d easily give up their lives for their children without hesitation. Of course, when it comes to killing for their children, the court recognizes that there’s a fine line between violence used in defense and unadulterated murder.
The 16-year-old girl reportedly told Harris that a strange man had just tried to force his way into her stall in the store’s restroom as she was using the facilities. Fortunately, the girl’s stall was locked, preventing the stranger from entering.
Harris immediately headed into the store, where his daughter identified the suspect as Leon Armstrong, who was being escorted outside by security, AZCentral.com reports. The heated father then told the guard to take care of the situation or he would do it himself. Apparently, Harris didn’t receive the reaction he wanted, prompting a disturbing outcome.
