Dad Alfredo Rodriguez said the man had touched his wife “inappropriately” and she then slapped him.

Rodriguez said he had been dancing with his wife when the incident occurred.

As the couple were going to their car, the man is said to have followed them and then started punching Rodriguez and grabbing his wife, reports ABC 13.

When the son, who has not been named, saw what was going on he pulled out his gun and shot and killed the attacker, according to the cops.

HPD Sgt Kenneth Daignault said: “From what I’ve seen on video and what everyone is telling me, yes, he’s clearly taking an action to protect his dad and his mom. “In the video, he (the father) looks unconscious after he punches him.”

One of the bullets fired hit the stepmom in the leg and she is currently being treated in hospital.

She is expected to recover.

The alleged attacker, thought to be in his 30s died at the hospital.

The district attorney will decide if charges will be filed.
