Landscape Contractor Ambushed and Shot

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Atlanta police are searching for two men who shot landscape contractor Pho Le, 61, once in the belly and multiple times in the right leg. Le is in the intensive care unit at Southern Regional Hospital.

The men, posing as realtors, paid Mr. Le, owner of Le’s Landscaping, $100 in advance to cut grass at a home in Clayton County outside Atlanta. When Le arrived at the home on Sunday Jan. 14, he was invited into the foyer then shot.

Police said the assailants had broken into the home and conjectured they meant to steal Le?EUR??,,????'???s truck and equipment, but fled instead.

In the early 1990s, Le and his wife, wife, Sanh Nguyen, immigrated to the U.S. from Vietnam with her two children. The couple became U.S. citizens in 1995.
