A Florida man is facing several charges after police say he began shooting at imaginary home intruders.
Volusia County Sheriff's officials say 71-year-old Herbert Tipton fired shots inside his DeLand home early Sunday. Tipton allegedly wouldn't let his adult daughter leave the home, either, because he thought the intruders were going to hurt them.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports a sobbing Dawn Champion pleaded with Tipton to stop as she talked to a 911 dispatcher. "Please Daddy, no more guns," she said.
Tipton eventually let Champion climb out a window.
He was taken into custody a short time later.
Tipton is charged with reckless discharge of a firearm, aggravated assault and false imprisonment.
Deputies also say they found numerous weapons in the home.
