Homeowner fatally shot suspect who was 'harassing' neighborhood,
2022-07-31
Feel good story of the weekend...
DALLAS - Dallas police are investigating after a homeowner fatally shot a suspect who reportedly threatened to kill the homeowner late Saturday night.

The shooting happened just after 11 p.m., in the 2600 block of Quinto Drive.

Investigators found that before being shot, the suspect "was harassing the neighborhood" and tried to break into several cars.

Police were told the suspect threatened to kill a homeowner. The suspect pretended to have a weapon and reportedly charged at the homeowner twice.
Rule to live by: Never bring an imaginary 'little friend' to a gunfight.
That's when the homeowner, who claimed to be in fear for their life, shot the suspect.

The suspect was taken to a local hospital, where he later died.

The suspect's name has not yet been released.
I guess you can look it up on his tombstone.
No charges have been filed at this time.

#2  I really don't get why criminals don't decide to move someplace they are less likely to get shot. I know, they do tend to be stupid but this kind of thing is COMMON here. Nobody will get charged because the law lays it out. Mischief at night means you get shot.
