The incident was captured on surveillance video, which showed several individuals “lurking around cars” outside of the home. The suspected car thieves “used burglary tools and key fob programmers to get inside of a van outside the house.”

The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office charged Rodriguez with one count of man arrested for defending property from car thieves.”>felony reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon. If convicted, he could face up to 6 years in prison. At least 28 shots were fired during the exchange.

Wife Upset Over Husband’s Arrest

Rodriguez’s wife was baffled by law enforcement’s decision to charge her husband over the ordeal. She said, “When they were talking to him, from what I saw, it was like they were trying to find ways to charge him. That doesn’t sound right. Why would you put pressure on the victim when you should put pressure for the suspects to be found?”

She was upset that the suspects were not caught and were “probably sleeping or partying” while her “husband was in jail, trying to get released for something where he was innocent.” She said that she was trying to convince her children that the area was still a safe place to live after the incident.
