Knock Knock (Who’s There?)

John Lee Baldwin, 35, apparently didn’t like having proselytizers knock at his Centerton, Ark., door — he told three Jehovah’s Witnesses to leave, complaining “I moved out here to get away from people like you.” As they headed back to their car, they say, they heard Baldwin turn to someone in the house and say, “Get me my 9” — apparently referring to a 9mm pistol. As they drove away, Baldwin allegedly started shooting at them. Police say Baldwin admits he fired “about” 19 rounds; he was charged with felony aggravated assault. (RC/Hot Springs Daily) ...Police have figured out his motive: “He didn’t want to leave any Witnesses.”
