So just now my dog goes nuts. You dog owners know, this isn't a cat or possum, he genuinely feels something is a threat.
I jet downstairs and out the backyard with the Sig in hand. I see a figure in the backyard of my neighbor's house, a white guy in blue clothes, with some kind of big black metal object in his hand. Didn't seem like a gun but maybe a crowbar. My neighbors are Indian and never goto their backyard. Seems like he was peering into our yard. After approaching the fence facing him, i see him turn around and run. I look over the fence and he's left through the gate leaving it wide open.
My mom just left the house leaving the garage door open and showing that one of the two cars are not home.
I don't know why he ran or what his business was in my neighbors yard, so i grab the snub nose and shove it into my pants as to not be open carrying. I walk down my driveway and i don't see him. Then he comes out of nowhere. I begin following him from quite a distance and he veers into someone elses backyard. I heard loud talking and see him jet back out. I didn't pull my firearm and had it concealed the whole time. I asked him if he was just in the yard of the home a few houses down. By this time i see his Centerpoint Shirt and the black object is actually some kind of radio. He explains that he was checking the meters on all the houses and that he ran because he didnt want to have a confrontation. I told him to that next time theyre going to have to knock and get permission instead of just jumping in the backyard when they feel like it. He wrote it into his little handheld radio computer thingy. I thanked him and went back in.
I did feel kind of silly because one time i was 15 a similar incident occured with the meter guy, except i only had a bat at the time and i was very aggressive in my approach since he was in our driveway trying to get in.
Was i being too paranoid? Anything i did wrong?
P.S. The guy had tattoos all over and piercings on his face. If he wasn't wearing the CP shirt with matching shorts i wouldn't have bought his story and prob called the cops to report it.
