He lived with his sister at the Crystal Lake apartments, 21000 NW 22nd Ave.About 1:30 a.m. Dec. 3, someone summoned him outside. He later said that robbers tried to storm the apartment, but that he locked the door and stayed outside to fight them off.''He actually saved my life. He knew I was inside, sleeping,'' Raffington said.Said Miami Gardens Sgt. Dave Simmons: ....His sister heard several gunshots and heard her brother call out to her.''After several major surgeries, Mclarty returned home on New Year's Eve, happy to watch the college football bowl games, but he was hospitalized briefly two days later.
