Crime Alert, I'm Nancy Grace, breaking crime news now. A Mississippi mom brings her three children home after school.

A few minutes later, they hear it banging on the front door.

Outside is Stephen Goss, armed with a knife. When he sees people inside, he tries to break through

the front door. The mom grabs a gun and hides with their children in a closet.

Goss then rams his truck through a wall to get inside. When he flings

open the closet door, mom shoots him in the arm and he runs away.

Nancy, we're now learning that Goss lived next door to the family and was seeking revenge

for a previous incident.

Months earlier, the family called police when Goss fired a gun in the air and he was charged

with being a felon in possession of a gun. Goss was free on a gun and he was charged with being a felon in possession of a gun.

Goss was free on bail at the time of the attack.

It's unclear how, but the father learned what was happening and called 911 from work,

giving officers Goss's description and his vehicle.

When cops caught up with Goss, he ran into a grocery store where he was apprehended and

taken to the hospital for his gunshot wound.

Stephen Goss, 42, charged with burglary, and four counts attempted murder.

Demarkas Davis 20 wear shackles in the back of a jail van when he's transported to a different

jail in Shelby County, Tennessee. In the middle of the drive he makes a break for

it, hopping out of the car and taking off on foot. But he doesn't make it far. A winter storm with snow and

temperatures in the 20s makes him rethink the great escape. After 45 minutes out in the elements, he flags down a passing driver and asked them

to call police to pick him up.

That gives a whole new meaning to two hot sent a cop. More Crime and Justice news after this.
