An Aurora man is back home from the hospital after bullets flew into his home less than two weeks ago, hitting him in the head and shoulder
The shooting happened on Feb. 10 at an apartment in the 10700 block of E. Exposition Avenue. The shooter is still on the run."I'm sitting on the couch and I hear like loud banging on the neighbor's door and a bunch of yelling," Thompson told Denver7 last week."I heard knocking on my door, like a soft knocking. And I went to the door to look out the window, and nobody was out there. So they knocked again after I sat down.
The window where the bullets entered the apartment is boarded up, and the couch still has a bullet stuck inside of it."I felt that I wouldn't fully recover from this if I didn't face my fears head-on," he said."When I came back in, I went into an extreme like PTSD, like anxiety, like an attack.""I do feel safe at the moment," Thompson said."Right now, there's a lot of nerve damage in my face. There's definitely going to be some physical therapy.
Denver7 reached out to the Aurora Police Department for an update on the investigation. Officials said they're following up on several leads but still have not identified a suspect."I've been praying about it," he said."I am resilient and I'm going to strengthen myself over time. But for now, I'm resting."
