Police have released a composite sketch of one of the men. He is described as a white male in his late 20s-early 30s, with brown hair with a mullet cut, about 6'0" and with cross tattoo under his right eye and a teardrop tattoo under his left eye.

The other two suspects are also described as white men, one on his 30s, also with brown hair and a mullet and about 5-foot-9. The third suspect is also described as being in his 30s, has a gap in his teeth, and was wearing an earring in his left ear.

The victim said the suspects fled in a red Chevy S-10 pickup truck with a black tool box in the bed if the truck.

Geez I fish that area once in a while. I learned years ago to carry my pistol when out wading and I very seldom go wading alone. I hope they find these losers and neuter them before they muliply with their mom and sisters.

No Doubt...I never go fishing anymore without Mr. Kimber at my side!! low life POS's!! I feel bad for this guy. I couldn't even imagine how pi$$ed off he is. Hopefully they catch these guys.

How hard can it be to catch a Dumba$$ with a tatoo under each eye? Im sure there are plenty of people that match this description in that area. Yeah, Right!

He is lucky to be alive, sometiims a teardrop tat under the eye means that this person has killed someone. It is sad that a person cant enjoy the outdoors anymore with people like this running around, that is why Im gonna start packing a 9 again. Sad sad times we livin in.

I hate this kinda stuff, feel bad for the guy. I wish every theif in the world would choke on a chicken bone and DIE! I hate thieves and would have no problem shooting one several hundred times or until I ran out of ammo.

That's exactly why I have a dry-bag that is just the right size for my SigSauer...left inside chest pocket of my wading vest. You may end up pistol whipping me, but you're taking some lead in the process.

I had a "situation" while fishing in that area years back actually. Two Mexicans in a van that were not happy I was there for some reason - Still not sure why.

Conceal and carry is cheap enough I just combine it with my glock .40 and if I feel my life is threatened.... click click BOOM, I hope to never have to do it but trust me I like the old country song " I'm not a man who would harm a mouse but if i catch somebody breaking in my house I got a 12 gauge shotgun waiting on the other side"

This guys in my prayers I hope if/when they catch them they pratice the do unto others like they done unto him.....

Be prepared for the legal battles. You can't kill just one of three because the other two will have a different story for the Judge and jury. You have to kill all three. No witnesses. Even then, you can have trouble. Here is a link where the parents of a burglar sued for wrongful death--for the burglar's 3 year old daughter and won $300,000 because the burglar did not intend to hurt anybody.

It's wrong, but that is the way this crazy country is.

There's an old saying, "Better to be judged by 12 than carried by six".

You got that right. Back in the summer of 05, me and some buddies were camping at Red River Gorge. There was about 6 or 7 of us and we were all in separate tents at a little spot by a creek. Sometime in the middle of the night we started hearing gun shots getting closer and closer. One by one our guys started waking up and talking through the tents. It just so happened that I was the only one packing.

The shots got closer and I could peek out and see 3 drunk skin heads shooting their guns down in the creek bed. It went on for about an hour and then they stumbled up through our camp. Now keep in mind, we had 6 or 7 tents, which means at least 6 or 7 people but these 3 drunks starting calling us out. I won't use the language here, but they were firing up in the air and was within 15 feet from my tent, and calling us every name in the book to come out. They had been firing all night with semi-automatics and all I had was a 32 Mag Revolver so I knew I didn't want to come out firing unless I heard one of my guys scream out or something. One came right beside my tent and I could see his shadow from his light. I pulled back the hammer and had my bead on him. I swear I think if he had fired one more shot I would have killed him. He backed off and made some drunk comment about him getting shot (if he only knew how close he was), and all three went on up the hill away from us firing their guns all the way up the hill. We were all pretty shook up and that's the closest I ever came to having to kill someone. I bet I didn't go back to sleep for 2 hours. Not sure what a jury would've said and I'm glad it ended the way it did. The next day we saw them again, probably 20 of them this time. Every single one of them was packing, we didn't have any problems.
