“Police have not filed any charges against a Pulaski County man who they say shot and killed someone in self-defense. Last night, officers were called to a home on West Highway, in Science Hill, to investigate a shooting. They say three people, one armed with wooden club, went to the home to start a fight — which they did. After a short time, police say the homeowner, Joshua Pyles, got a shotgun and asked the suspects to leave his home and property. They refused and continued to make threats, so Pyles fired one shot. One of the suspects, 34-year-old Jim Goff, was hit. He was pronounced dead at the scene.” (07/24/08)
