TABOR CITY, N.C. (AP) — A sheriff says a North Carolina state senator shot one of two intruders at his home and hospital officials say the man is in fair condition.

Multiple media outlets reported that Columbus County Sheriff Chris Batten said that 74-year-old Sen. R.C. Soles of Tabor City shot Kyle Blackburn late Sunday afternoon.

A spokeswoman at Loris Community Hospital in South Carolina said Monday that Blackburn was in fair condition.

Batten says the shooting occurred when two men went to the senator's house and tried to kick in his front door. No charges have been filed.

The sheriff's office said the State Bureau of Investigation was handling the case. A call to an agency spokeswoman was not immediately returned. There was no answer at a number listed for Soles' home.

The Democrat has been in the Senate 32 years.

It looks like this Deomocrat just became a Republican, at least in his personal politics!

It is nice that our politicians can experience what the common folk get to every day.

What a wonderful time to take the opportunity to make him put his money where is trigger finger is, RIGHT NOW. "So, Senator Soles, can you give us your opinions on gun control issues?"

A 74-year-old North Carolinian is old enough to be a yellow dog Democrat!

This won't change the way the political elite think about us lowly citizens' gun rights. They are elite after all.
