An 80-year-old man in Scottsdale allegedly shot a door-to-door solicitor on a segway after the solicitor pointed his phone at McBride’s house, sparking a confrontation that left the man paralyzed. McBride claims he felt threatened and only realized he’d wounded someone after checking his back — but he admitted picking up a bullet casing. The solicitor, now recovering from spinal surgery, says he was just trying to find his wallet when McBride attacked. McBride faces aggravated assault and disorderly conduct charges, with a $150K bond and remains jailed.
