Benjamin Nevers is a 24-year-old resident of Dearborn Heights, Michigan, who was involved in a home invasion that turned into a shootout on January 26, 2025. Nevers and his girlfriend were asleep in their apartment when two suspects broke in through a kitchen window. One of the suspects held Nevers' roommate at gunpoint in the living room, while Nevers, still half-asleep, grabbed his gun and prepared for the intruders to enter his bedroom.
The confrontation was caught on security footage, showing Nevers, in boxers and a T-shirt, holding a pistol and firing at the intruder identified as Phillip Price. Nevers was shot first but managed to fire back, hitting the suspect in the leg. The footage also captured the suspect stumbling and falling on the front stoop of the house after being shot.
As a result of the incident, Nevers suffered a shattered foot and underwent surgery to repair it. His girlfriend was also shot in the back and was hospitalized with more serious injuries, as the bullet had lodged in her chest. The suspect was arrested and charged with attempted murder and other serious crimes, totaling 21 charges. His accomplice fled the scene and was still being sought by the police at the time of the incident.
Nevers is now on crutches and continues to recover from his injuries.
