Girl Scout selling cookies threatened with shotgun

08:53 PM CST on Thursday, January 25, 2007


(KMOV) -- An outing to sell Girl Scout cookies turns dangerous for a St. Louis firefighter and his daughter. They claim that an elderly neighbor chased them with a loaded shotgun. Terry Tedder, father of girl scout, explains to News 4 what he and his daughter experienced.

Terry Tedder says that on Tuesday night he took his 8-year-old daughter around their south St. Louis neighborhood to sell Girl Scout cookies. It was supposed to be a fun outing for the father and daughter. Tedder says that after they knocked on the front door of one neighbor's house in the 4400 block of Hamburg, it was the scariest time of their lives.

At first, the veteran St. Louis firefighter says he didn't think anyone was at the house. As he and his daughter were leaving, Tedder says that a 78-year-old woman opened her door, and pointed a shotgun at him and his daughter, then chased them with the loaded weapon. He and his daughter ran for their lives.

No one came to the door when News 4 visited home on Thursday. Someone did, however, close the blinds while we were there.

Meanwhile, Tedder has filed a police report.

The alleged, shotgun-flourishing 78-year-old is now charged with a crime.
No shots were fired during the incident and no one was hurt.

Police did confiscate the shotgun that the neighbor has owned for 12 years.

Investigators say that the neighbor told them she came to the door with the weapon because recently a stranger had been harassing her.

Yeah I agree....I personally think she should have looked out from her window first before opening the door, shes lucky it wasn't a police officer that knocked on her door, otherwise they would have shot her if she had pointed that gun at them or chased after them with the shot gun in her hands....:ugh3:
 
My brother loves girl scouts, the girl scouts love my brother too. My brother promises an eternal shitlife to anyone that threatens or harms any girl scout.

Old people shouldn't be around guns or weapons. They re senile and can go off anytime.
 
Not safe anymore to sell Girl Scout cookies.. that old woman lost her mind big time.
 
Sheesh its not even safe for girls doing that anymore? I think its probably best just for girl scouts & anyone selling things to go to family & friends that they know instead of strangers. Hope they charge her good for that. Doesn't matter if shes 78 years old or not. She is just like anyone else. She's not above the law & can't get away with things like that.
 
Omg, She is already lose her marbles mind!

Thx God, She didn't pull the trigger! LOL

Least Father and his daughter are okay.. but no pleasant w/this psycho lady!
 
I'm friggin innocent! INNOCENT I say!! ... A Mike's Hard Lemonade would be great right now.

She lives in St Louis "The Murder Capital of Missouri", so, whatta you expect?
 
Why in the hell didn't they confiscate the gun? Just leave it there for her to use it again? Next time, she might kill someone!
