2 A.M. Break-In Ends Badly for Albany Burglar
Around 2 a.m. on Dawson Road in Albany, Georgia, a would-be burglar picked the wrong apartment complex. And very quickly found out why doors, windows, and personal space matter.
According to police, an intruder broke into two neighboring apartments overnight, setting off a chain of events that ended with him being shot multiple times by an armed resident.
The incident unfolded at an apartment complex on the 1500 block of Dawson Road, where residents were jolted awake by the unmistakable sound of glass shattering and doors being kicked in.
n one apartment, a tenant said he woke up to someone smashing through his window. He grabbed a firearm and encountered the suspect crawling across his floor. The tenant held the intruder at gunpoint while trying to call police, but told officers the suspect attempted to grab the gun. That’s when the resident fired multiple shots.
When officers arrived, things got even more interesting.
A neighbor came forward and told police his apartment had also been targeted. He said he heard his bathroom window shatter, followed by someone running around the fence line and then kicking in his door. That resident grabbed a baseball bat and confronted the intruder, who then fled. Only to end up inside the neighboring apartment where the shooting occurred.
Police identified the suspect as Tommy Poole, who was shot during the encounter and transported to the hospital. Officers said Poole will face charges once released.

Mr. Poole needs a new line of work- he sucks at burglary. Hat tip to AW1 Rod for the link.
Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
