Duct tape restraint fails, angry homeowner retrieves gun, opens fire on home invaders
2017-03-16
[Vegas Review-Journal] Three people were shot, one fatally, after what Las Vegas police are calling a robbery-home invasion in the northwest valley late Monday night.

One man was killed and another was wounded after binding a couple with duct tape in their home on the 8000 block of Hesperides Avenue about 10:30 p.m., Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Dan McGrath said.

Police received calls of gunshots from neighbors and a call from the homeowner. When officers arrived, they formed a team and found a man and a woman inside the home near West Elkhorn and North Cimarron roads, McGrath said. Inside, police also found a man’s body lying in a rear entryway to the backyard.

McGrath said it appeared the homeowner escaped from being bound by the duct tape.

"I’m not sure how he was able to break free, but he was able to retrieve a firearm and shoot the suspect multiple times," McGrath said

#3  With a little practice (like one rep) escaping that particular restraint is easy especially if hands are in the front. Its all in the set up. Good job dumping the turd for Act II.
