Tuesday morning feel good stories

From Fresno, California;

Two burglars were at the wrong house when they tried stealing from a retired Fresno Police officer Sunday afternoon.

Authorities say it happened at a northwest Fresno at a home on Hughes and Emerson Avenues.

According to police, the retired officer was coming home from church and had just pulled into his driveway as the two suspects were leaving with a laptop and gardening tools.

The homeowner then got out of his car to confront one of the men, which quickly led to a physical altercation.

“At that point, the husband retrieved a firearm that he carried on his person and fired two rounds from his handgun into the ground,” said Fresno Police Lt. David Ramsey.

Both suspects immediately dropped all of the property and took off towards a canal bank north of Ashlan.

Police later caught up with one of them.

Nicholas Orona, 32, was arrested for residential burglary, possession of burglary tools and strong-armed robbery.

An update to the Bakersfield, California story yesterday;

An alleged burglar is recovering after he was shot by an elderly man inside a Northeast Bakersfield home over the weekend.

On Saturday at 12:20 p.m., Bakersfield police responded to reports of shots fired, according to police. Officers arrived to the 2800 block of Mount Vernon Ave, where they found Joshua Zorilla, 29, suffering from a non-life threatening gunshot wound, police said.

Officers determined Zorilla was shot by an elderly resident during a burglary a few blocks away in the 2400 block of San Pablo Ave.

Zorilla was transported to a hospital, where his condition is unknown.

Once he’s released from the hospital, he will be arrested on burglary, parole violation and gang charges, police said.

Good going California!
Even in that communist state, you can still use a firearm to defend inside your home.

Silly burglars…. trying to rob a cop’s home. Or a geezer’s domicile. Nitwits.

One does not need to retrieve a pistol that one keeps on their person. One retrieves a pistol that is kept in an unoccupied car or truck, a bedside table, or a gun safe. A pistol carried on ones person is said to be drawn, pulled, or yanked. It is pretty obvious that most reporters know absolutely nothing about personal firearms, their carrying, or their deployment. Sad but true.
