King's wife, who is more than eight-months pregnant, peeked out of the back bedroom during the incident, at which point King said one of the intruders shot at her.
She then retrieved the AR-15 and shot at the intruder, clipping him, according to King.
“He made it from my back door to roughly 200 feet out in the front ditch before the AR did its thing,” King said.
Authorities found the body of a man in a ditch nearby the house. The second intruder ran when the shot was fired and hasn't been apprehended.
King meanwhile said he has a fractured eye socket, fractured sinus cavity, a concussion, 20 stitches and three staples in his head.
“Them guys came in with two normal pistols and my AR stopped it,” King said, adding that his wife had “evened the playing field and kept them from killing me.”
The AR-15 rifle was in the home legally, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.
