Spend some time with college girls; there are plenty of them that still act like early teens. Unfortunately, I could see some guy thinking he had one of those, though I couldn't imagine the ruse lasting more than a few days without some serious effort on her part.

Police said the man and the girl ran out, and when the man returned to talk with the parents, the girl's father had a loaded shotgun.

This is sad. But if you come home and see someone with your "who you thought was innocent" daughter, then you pull a gun after they flee.

He wasn't "carrying in violation" of any part of the statute; he had a shotgun in his own home when the guy came back onto the property.
