At this point, Justin began plotting how he might assault Ava and her family. He asked one of Ava\u2019s male classmates whether he had access to a gun, and wrote, \u201ci could just breach the door with a shotgun i think.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s exactly what he did. He flew from his home in Maryland to the Majury home in Naples, Florida, and blasted a hole in their front door with a shotgun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAll I remember was, I heard it, I felt it in my chest, and I looked up, and there was a hole in my door from the fragments,\u201d Ava told the <em>Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rob found Justin standing on his front lawn wearing eye and ear protection along with \u201cwhat looked like a blue Walmart worker\u2019s vest.\u201d The father ran at Justin, whose shotgun had jammed. Rob fell and gashed his knee as Justin fled the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A short time later, Rob had retrieved a handgun and was standing at the front door waiting for police to arrive as Justin returned. Rob told police that Justin pointed the shotgun towards him, and he fired, killing the teenager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"see-also-father-responds-to-400-lbs-attacker-who-said-i-love-your-daughter-i-want-to-rape-your-daughter\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/father-saves-daughter\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"father-of-tik-tok-star-defends-family-from-shotgun-wielding-stalker\" title=\"Father of Tik-Tok Star Defends Family from Shotgun-Wielding Stalker\">Father Responds to 400 lbs Attacker Who Said, \u2018I love your daughter, I want to rape your daughter\u2019<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Justin was carrying two cellphones that contained thousands of photographs of Ava and hundreds of hours of her videos, according to police. It\u2019s anyone\u2019s guess what he would have done if Rob wasn\u2019t able to defend his family as he waited for the police to arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ava is still on social media. She claims her family \u201cinsisted that I get rid of my social media,\u201d but her parents told the <em>Times<\/em> they didn\u2019t want to destroy what she had worked to build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHer creations, her contacts, her videos became such a big part of her that to take it away would have been hard,\u201d her father said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhy should we allow [sick individuals] to stop her? Maybe she\u2019s meant to bring awareness to all this,\u201d Kim Majury, Ava\u2019s mom, told the <em>Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ava reportedly makes thousands of dollars in sponsorship deals from her social media accounts and has attracted interest from Hollywood reality TV producers. She posts images and videos of herself lip-syncing and dancing to popular music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The National Rifle Association has highlighted the story as an example of the importance of Second Amendment rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">15-year-old TikTok star Ava Majury\u2019s stalker showed up at her house fired shots through her front door. <br \/><br \/>Ava\u2019s dad, Rob, sprung into action and shot back.
