Saturday morning feel good story

| March 8, 2014

Chief Tango sends us feel good story to kick off the weekend, this time it’s from Detroit where a couple of youths were prevented by the evil homeowner from climbing through his window;

Thursday’s shooting happened at about 12:30 p.m. when two men allegedly broke into a home on the 8200 block of Penrod on the city’s west side, Detroit Police Third Deputy Chief Rodney Johnson said.

“The homeowner was able to retrieve his weapon, and fired hitting one of the burglars,” Johnson said. “He ran away and collapsed in the driveway. The other burglar was able to escape.”

The homeowner heard glass shatter near the rear of his home and found one intruder, believed to be 17 years old, attempting to enter through a window, Johnson said. The resident fired two shots hitting the victim in his chest. The juvenile intruder died.

His suspected accomplice, a man in his 20s, fled the scene and is still at-large.

This shooting is the fifth incident in the past two weeks, where a resident shot an alleged intruder, said Johnson.

Why is it always “alleged”?
The FACTS say otherwise.

gotta say “alleged” until they are convicted in a court of law… otherwise, if they are not convicted, they turn around and sue the paper/station for kazillions. Not sure that has ever happened, but just to make sure they are wearing inch-thick condoms on their little journalisitc weenies, all the journalists say “alleged.” Facts be damned, boys, there’s a possibe lawsuit ahead!

Damn you Obama!! You are responsible for the death of another troubled youth. You need to get gun control passed and maybe this victim would be alive today. Saved from the evildoer trying to impede his score.

Two men enter. One man leaves.

Yeah, more Gun Control Laws. GOTTA save those precious little goblins from the evil homeowners that say they just want to defend themselves! If B. Hussein 0bama had more kids…
