A Los Angeles father who pulled a gun on masked intruders when they tried to break into his luxury home has revealed he has been stripped of his firearm permit.
In a video for the National Rifle Association, Vince Ricci said his concealed carry license was ‘revoked’ after he was attacked by two men at his $2million house.
‘After successfully defending my home and my family and my five-month-old child, California has now decided to suspend my Second Amendment [rights],’ Ricci said.
The entrepreneur, who is the CEO of a photo studio, told Fox News the sheriff’s office called him on Thursday telling him it was due to him ‘yelling’ at officers.
He had previously blasted the LAPD for ‘sloppy police work’, including their alleged negligence in picking up casings scattered near his home as evidence.
DailyMail.com has reached out to the LAPD for comment.
On November 4 just after Ricci returned home to his gated LA home, two armed men jumped his fence and tried to force their way into his house.
Footage of the gunfight revealed the moment in which he is approached by one of the masked assailants at about 7.30pm.
In a swift attempt to defend himself, his wife, five-month-old and the nanny inside Ricci reached for his gun and started a shootout with the intruders.
Obtaining a concealed carry permit in California is more difficult than other states with Ricci telling Fox News Digital it took him months to process it.
In California residents over the age of 18 can legally carry firearms on private property and residences without a permit or license.
‘My situation is unique because it happened at my front door, all on camera,’ he said. ‘But this happens time and time again all over the country…
‘People sweep it under the rug because it doesn’t behoove their political agenda. The fact is, evil will always exist.’
