Texas man shot, killed after stealing BBQ pit from owner: authorities

[FoxNews] Harris County, Texas man chased down the suspect who allegedly stole his grill, before firing his gun at the man and killing him.

A Harris County, Texas homeowner shot and killed a man after he allegedly stole a BBQ pit from his home early Sunday morning, according to officials.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said in a social media post early Sunday that deputies responded to the 15000 block of Ralston Road near Kentington Oak Drive after reports that a man had been shot and was confirmed dead.

A preliminary investigation revealed the dead man allegedly attempted to steal the shooter’s BBQ pit from his home.

After discovering his grill had been stolen, the homeowner left his home and chased down the suspect in his own vehicle, Gonzalez said.

#6 Of course FoxSnews posts a picture of a grill, not a pit. Without seeing a picture of the pit it's not possible to know if the shooting was justified. It would also be helpful to have the owner smoke some brisket so the Grand Jury can decide if they should indict or commend the owner.
