An 18-year-old Florida man shot while he was having sex with a teenage girl is talking about his ordeal.

Julian Harp is recovering following a multiple shooting at an Apopka home.

Police said Wade Edwards, 41, shot Harp four times below the belt after he came home to find him having sex with his teenage stepdaughter. Harp said within 10 seconds of being caught all he could hear was the father cocking his gun.

“As soon as I take a couple of steps down the stairs, he’s shooting me,” Harp said. “When he shot me the second time I took off running down the stairs.”

Harp said he was hit with another bullet as he was running out of the house.

“When I take off running, that’s when he shoots me in my rump,” Harp said.

Harp said he screamed for help before he collapsed on the sidewalk in front of a neighbor who called 911.

“I can’t tell if he’s got his clothes on, his leg is covered in blood,” a neighbor said.

“I was just lying there, I couldn’t do nothing. My whole body was getting stiff, turning purple,” Harp recalled.

Within minutes Harp was rushed to a hospital. Surgeons removed bullets from Harp’s thigh and stomach. He is now recovering from his injuries.

Wade has been charged with attempted second-degree murder and is being held without bond.
