The father, Dave, said he was awoken early Wednesday morning after hearing some loud banging noises in the area where he was camping on Crown land near Baynes Lake.

Dave91裸聊视频檚 son, who was already awake, called him from another area of their site saying that someone was smashing into the camper.
Running outside, Dave could see damage to his Nissan 350Z and that his camper was off its jacks. A man in a truck could be seen fleeing the area.
In a phone interview Friday, Dave told Black Press Media that he and his son ran to their truck and tried to catch up to the truck, at least enough to get a licence plate number. Dave91裸聊视频檚 girlfriend stayed behind at their site.
Familiar with the area, Dave said he took a shortcut to get to an exit road in hopes of cutting off the truck.
As the two vehicles met, Dave said he saw the man had a shotgun.

91裸聊视频淗e ends up coming right beside us, window-to-window, he91裸聊视频檚 got the gun right out the passenger window, pointed right at me and my son and I hit my brakes. I juked right really quick and he ended up smashing a tree.91裸聊视频
Dave said the man then backed up and took off through a 91裸聊视频渉eavily treed91裸聊视频 forest area. His son connected with 911, who told them to stay at the Suzie Forest Road intersection with Highway 3 south of Galloway.
But the man didn91裸聊视频檛 leave the area, Dave said, instead returning to their campsite to further damage his sports car and camper 91裸聊视频 also threatening his girlfriend with the gun before fleeing.
