Teen Pizza Delivery Driver Escapes Injury After Being Shot at for Parking Error

A Tennessee homeowner opened fire on a teen delivering pizza, mistakenly believing him to be a thief, highlighting the peril of minor mistakes in a gun-heavy society.

18-year-old Caiden Wheeler was shot at multiple times for parking in the wrong driveway while delivering pizza in Tennessee.
The shooter, Ryan Babcock, mistook Wheeler for a potential thief due to misinterpreting his actions on a doorbell camera.
Babcock was charged with aggravated assault but released on $50,000 bail, sparking debate over the adequacy of the charges.
The incident is part of a troubling trend where small errors can lead to severe consequences in areas with prevalent gun ownership.
Legal experts and advocates highlight the need for greater awareness and possibly reform of self-defense laws to prevent similar incidents.
