Monday morning feel good stories
Well, here are closing out the last week of the year and our last Monday morning feel good story for 2014, of course they were sent to us by Chief Tango. The first is from Texas;
A North Texas man is being heralded a hero after police said he held a man at gunpoint who was assaulting a woman.
The tense standoff broke out on Friday near the intersection of Carroll Avenue and Southlake Boulevard.

Investigators sorted out the situation and determined the man with the gun was actually trying to help.
Chief Steve Mylett with the Southlake Police Department said the man had just witnessed the driver of the red vehicle hitting his female passenger. Police arrested MacMichael Nwaiwu, 28, who is now in jail.
“It’s amazing that in this day in age that people are willing to reach out and help,” said Doland.
The next story is from Tennessee;
Police arrived on the scene to find two men already dead from gunshot wounds. At this point, no charges have been filed against the homeowner.
“When you take something, come into someone’s house, that’s what you get,” Neighbor Ronnie Clark said, “That’s what you got over there, sorry for it, but stuff like that happens.”
Neighbors are standing with one of their own after three armed burglars broke into this house early Saturday morning.
Memphis police say the homeowner gave the would-be burglars one warning before shooting two of them dead.
“I couldn’t believe that happened to him, just try to come in his house like that, I guess he said he left, had been gone a couple hours, came back and that’s what happened, they were in his house,” Clark said.
