A Florida man fatally shot a man who jumped out of the bushes when investigating the sound of banging on his back door late one night, only to find out it was his son-in-law.

Christopher Bergan, 37, had secretly traveled from Norway to visit his family in Florida to give his father-in-law, Richard Dennis, 61 a birthday surprise.
