Too close for comfort. Yesterday, Bun B and his wife endured a harrowing experience where the couple had to defend their home against an armed intruder. A representative for the beloved hip-hop legend and co-founder of the trailblazing
Per reports, Bun’s wife, Queenie Freeman, answered the door in their gated community home around 5PM expecting a delivery from Amazon. Instead, she found Jackson, who pulled a gun and forced his way into the home. Bun was upstairs, but upon becoming aware of the danger to his family, grabbed his own weapon and headed downstairs. By the time he reached Jackson, Bun found him in the family’s vehicle, trying to flee. Police say Bun and the man exchanged gunfire.
Thankfully, neither Bun nor Queenie were physically harmed in the intrusion. Jackson, however, was not so lucky, getting shot in the shoulder. As he tried to flee on foot, Bun chased him, caught him and even got him to take his mask off. Jackson did eventually escape, but later turned up at Pearland Medical Center seeking medical attention for a gunshot wound. Police were notified and Bun came to identify the man.
Jackson is currently being held at Harris County Jail on two counts of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and a single count of burglary with intent to commit a felony, police said. Jackson’s bail is set at $120,000. He has a court hearing one week from today.
