Gun violence is a growing problem in the USA, as evidenced by a recent incident in South Carolina where a man was fatally shot after setting off a booby-trapped shotgun while checking on a family member’s residence. The incident involved a burglary attempt and the discovery of a rigged shotgun intended to harm law enforcement officers. The homeowner, Alfonzo Brown, who is currently in jail in Maryland, is suspected to have set up the trap. Brown is also a suspect in a triple, non-fatal shooting in Prince George’s County. Other similar cases of booby-trapped homes have been reported, including one in Southern California where a man was accused of setting up shotgun shells with spring-loaded firing pins in his garage. In another incident in Oregon, a man was sentenced to more than 12 years in prison for booby-trapping his former home with “Indiana Jones” inspired traps that injured a federal officer. These incidents highlight the dangers of gun violence and the need for stricter gun control measures to prevent further tragedies.
