A homeless man saved a 19-year old girl who was being beaten by her ex-boyfriend outside of a liquor store. The Sheriff’s Office are calling him a “Good Samaritan[1].”

California Homeless Man Saves Teen Being Kicked, Punched by Ex-Boyfriend[2]

The homeless man, Paul DeLeon, pepper-sprayed a man who pulled up in a white Lexus, approached his ex-girlfriend and began kicking and punching her, the FCSO said in a news release.

DeLeon then ran away, but the suspect allegedly beating his ex tracked him down and fired several rounds at DeLeon, striking him in the arm, the FCSO added. DeLeon then “grabbed his registered handgun and returned fire, sending multiple rounds toward the suspect,” though it’s “unknown if the suspect was hit,” the FCSO said. “The suspect then drove away.”

DeLeon believes that he stopped the man from beating his ex-girlfriend to death. Detectives are still looking at the suspect, who could be looking at spousal abuse and assault with a firearm.
