Another Reason for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms

Intruder fatally shot by gun-wielding homeowner

A homeowner shot and killed an intruder who broke into a home near Memorial Park.

The suspect jumped a fence and broke through the side door of a town home on Lacy at Dettering just north of Memorial Drive. He had a baseball bat.
A man was home with his wife and child. He warned the intruder that he had a gun. That didn't stop him.

HPD's Mike Walker said, "(As he) began to make his way through the residence the homeowner secured his wife and child. As he tried to go upstairs he shot him."

The intruder died at the scene. Police say classify the case as a justifiable homicide.

Police are also checking out reports that the suspect may have had an accomplice. Witnesses heard a car speed off after the homeowner fired shots.

The anti-gun people are fond of telling lies such as "a gun in the home is 22 times as likely to kill or injure someone in the family as to be used for defense. I guess this family was a mistake. Actually the mistake is in having a "researcher" with an agenda (the disarming of Americans) doing research about that agenda. Kind of like having someone from the Sierra Club researching Global Warming. The results are likely to be as objective as is the researcher. Thanks God our ForeFathers had the forsight to cite gun ownership as one of our natural rights.
