Thursday morning feel good stories

| November 17, 2016

A homeowner in Wichita, Kansas was watching TV with his girlfriend when two thieves broke into his home. He struggled with the armed thug, took his gun away and shot him several times. Police found the thief in the yard and took him to the hospital where he’s in serious condition.

30-year-old Eric Michael Stevens tried to break into a jewelry store in North Charleston, South Carolina. When that failed, he noticed a security camera on a nearby home, so he tried to break into the home to destroy the security system. The homeowner heard him break in and fired a shot at him. The bullet missed Stevens, but the homeowner walked him outside into the waiting arms of the police.

A homeowner in Birmingham, Alabama shot at a criminal he found in his house, but the fellow fled the scene and the homeowner was unsure whether he had hit the target or not. The police found the criminal nearby with a gunshot wound to his abdomen.

Frankie sends us a story from San Antonio, Texas about a family who found Leonard Trevino, an armed sex offender, hiding under their stairs (thanks to an alert dog). After a brief struggle, the son of the family shot Trevino in his stupid face. I guess Trevino survived because the article says that he’s facing additional charges.

Three men confronted a homeowner in Memphis, Tennessee. When the three started gathering up the homeowner’s property, he drew his firearm and a firefight broke out. The victim and one suspect wee wounded in the resulting exchange of gunfire. The other two criminals left at a high rate of speed while the victim and suspect were taken to the hospital.

In Pasco, Washington, Christian A. Acosta is recovering in the hospital after kicking in Pedro Madinas’ door and catching lead in his pancreas.

Six hits and no DRT’s/DOT’s? Come on folks, put the .22’s away and bring out the big iron!

I saw a photo of Trevino post-arrest and it looks, indeed, like a .22 was used on him.
And he was known to the family from prior assaults he had committed. They seriously need some bigger guns. And in this case, they needed to continue firing until the threat was fully neutralized.

Guy got shot in the pancreas? That’s the first time I’ve ever read of that.
