Houston - Son repels armed home invaders

Post by Bruenor »

Another one that wasn't carrying, but managed to retrieve his firearm and repel the invaders.

Police say three suspects pistol whipped a father as he arrived at the home, forcing him to open the door. Two sisters inside hid in a closet while the suspects ransacked the property.

The girls, one 21 and the other a juvenile, managed to hit a panic alarm as the home invasion continued. Eventually the suspects found the girls while searching the home.

Soon after, a son arrived at the home with his mom. When he saw something was wrong, he went and got his gun and fired at the suspects while they were fleeing. One of the suspects, who was armed, was shot in the head.

From the article...

'' [*** named neighbor] and other neighbors said they have never had problems in their neighborhood before. ''

..that they know of.

I've dealt with similar topic b4 here in Ohio when discussing cases with people. They appear :shock: shocked :shock: at the level of violence that can and does happen...in Ohio. I finish with, ''That's not Alcatraz, Sing SIng or Pelican Bay SHU, but ...Ohio''

(yes I know Alc is closed)
Acquisitions thus far:

-Slingshot
-Butter knife
-Soda straw and peas
-Sharpened pencil
-Newspaper roll
--water balloon (*diversionary*)

Yeah, I'm that good
