<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

There's a doctor's office next to my house, and lots of people use it as a shortcut because the parking lot cuts like, 400 feet of walking. Anyway, earlier tonight, some creeper was lurking in the parking lot, and a woman was passing through on her way home. Creeper jumps her, and I hear the woman screaming, look out my window, see this guy wrestling with her.

I grab my crossbow, load it up, run out of my house. I circle around the building so the guy couldn't see that I was coming from my own house, and run into the parking lot. He looks up, sees me holding what, in the dark, he probably thought was some rifle. He drops the woman, hops the fence, and runs off.

Woman is fine, her clothes are a bit ripped up but no injuries. I call the police on the cell, and in my panic at the moment, I toss my crossbow over the fence leading to my house's driveway (Not the fence the perp hopped).

When the cops showed up, I gave them a description of the guy, told them which way he went, ect. Ambulance came for the woman despite her protests about it, probably a legality for an assault victim, IDK.

Cops take my info and continue on their way. What I'm concerned about, is if the police catch the guy and he tells them I had a weapon. If they contact me about this, how should I handle it? Did I break any laws by going at the guy with the crossbow? (I didn't fire it).
<bot>: Guy jumped a woman in a parking lot next to my house, I scared him away with a crossbow, afraid of what might happen if police find out I had a weapon.
