Crashed the car. Jumped a fence. Deliberately bypassed other houses to break into one particular house. Then shot for his hard work.
The back story on the shot perp would be interesting. Too bad we’ll never get to hear it.
The sad state of journalism. Read the title of the story, then read the quoted paragraph. Doesn’t the paragraph say he hit the perp with the gun instead of shooting him?
