WWE Hall Of Famer Recently Detained Invader During Home Break In

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer ‘Hacksaw’ Jim Duggan, while never becoming WWF Champion, had quite a legendary career in the company, including winning the very first Royal Rumble match.

The 68-year old wrestling legend proved recently that he is still not somebody you want to cross.

Hacksaw told Wrestling Inc. that he was the victim of a home invasion at roughly 6:45 p.m. on December 8.

Duggan said that the culprit, a male in his mid-20s, entered through the front door of his home in South Carolina.

Duggan went on to claim that he took the man down by himself, before holding the intruder at gunpoint.

Per Wrestling Inc:

Duggan and his wife, Debra, noted that after the man entered, they heard other people yelling in their neighborhood. Duggan, concerned that more people might be headed his way, had his Christmas lights turned off and told the intruder to be quiet. The intruder, who the Duggans described as hysterically frightened, claimed that people from a nearby home were coming after him to kill him, after which Duggan kept his gun on his lap and his hand on the intruder’s back until the police arrived.

According to Duggan, the intruder was fleeing individuals related to a separate legal matter, leading him to seek refuge; the intruder reportedly pounded on multiple other doors before climbing over the Duggans’ fence and entering through their unlocked door. Duggan did not press charges when asked, letting the Kershaw County Sheriff’s Department apprehend the intruder. 

“Thank God we didn’t shoot him,” Duggan said.

Duggan previously defeated cancer earliert his year, so it’s been a very strong year for the former Royal Rumble winner.
