Former Councilman Injured in Home Invasion
“They get into a physical scuffle at some point the victim who is authorized to carry a fire arm fired two rounds in the direction of the suspect,” said Lt. David Rohowits with San Diego police. The bullets missed the attacker who, in response, pistol-whipped Mathias in the head. Police do not believe the suspect was hit by the gunfire. Mathis was then taken into the home. A neighbor was walking by the house when he heard gunfire and went to the house to investigate. Police originally said the neighbor was a woman. The intruders demanded the man join Mathis and his wife Mary in the house.
