Virginia mother shoots armed man, 25, who flew 8,500 miles from New Zealand and tried to break into her home because her '14-year-old daughter stopped speaking to him online'

A man from New Zealand was shot after he travelled to the home of a 14-year-old girl in Virginia he was reportedly communicating with online.

Troy George Skinner, 25, was shot on Friday after he allegedly smashed a glass door and tried to enter the home in Goochland, Virginia.

He is now fighting for his life after being shot in the neck by the girl's mother. The FBI are investigating the shooting.

The Goochland County sheriff said Skinner bought a knife and duct tape after arriving in the U.S.
