So today was an interesting day: There was a 2 on 1 beating going on in my yard, so I went to look to see what was going on. It LOOKED like one of the people had been using something as a weapon, so I went back inside and grabbed my gun, then went back outside and ordered them off my lawn. Luckily there was another gentleman that knew the beaten girl, and took her to get treatment. The other 2 people fled, and I think the cops caught up with them later. Did I do anything wrong in this instance, or was I justified? I know that the Stand Your Ground Statute states that I can defend others if there was a life threatening act (which is what I thought was happening due to one of the assailants apparently having something in their hand while punching) so I just want to get clarified if what I did was considered justified?
