Kentucky Homeowner Thwarts a Not-So-Neighborly Home Invasion<\/strong><\/p>\n

By John Boch
\nIn the quiet pre-dawn hours last Friday in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, Danny Hyatt decided to pull off what he probably figured was just another quick score. At 36-years-old, you\u2019d think he\u2019d know better than to storm into occupied dwellings, but he probably figured it beats working for a living. Unfortunately for Danny Boy, the homeowner wasn\u2019t a helpless waif who subscribed to the Moms Demand Action \u201cguns are icky and dangerous\u201d way of thinking. Far from it.<\/p>\n

Hyatt decided his neighbor \u2013 yes, his neighbor \u2013 had some stuff he coveted. At 5 a.m., he forced entry. Local cops called it a straight-up home invasion. Hyatt\u2019s neighbor, however, kept their safety rescue tool close by (not locked in a safe with ammunition stored separately), and used it to educate Danny on neighborly ethics.<\/p>\n

Hyatt absorbed some hot lead. And despite the best efforts of first responders, he died on scene.<\/p>\n

Mr. Homeowner wasn\u2019t charged given the evidence on scene. But then again, it\u2019s Kentucky, not Portland. Defending your life against a crazy lunatic isn\u2019t a crime in Kentucky.<\/p>\n

As for the rest of the neighborhood, the local police chief made it clear this was an isolated incident, unlikely to happen again given the lack of vital signs displayed by Danny Hyatt.<\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t known if this was the same Hyatt who stabbed a family member a few years ago in Lawrenceburg, but his history of contacts with the law suggest this wasn\u2019t his first rodeo. One thing\u2019s for sure: it was his last.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’d say the article sums it up pretty nicely. Thanks to our own Graybeard for the link.<\/p>\n
