Fox News
The boater who rescued a jet skier from drowning in a South Carolina lake then fatally shot him had no choice after the man assaulted him, the victim's friend told deputies.
"John just had to shoot him," she said of stranger John Dotson Jr. 74, who she credited with saving her life after she and Morgan fell off a jet ski near Fall Creek.
The Oconee County Sheriff's Office previously announced that Dotson would not be charged in Morgan's death.
