ST. LOUIS — An attempted home invasion turned into a shooting investigation after a man shot two men, killing one and leaving the other in critical condition, as they held his daughter at gunpoint and tried to get inside the family's home.
KTVI reports the shootings happened around 11 p.m. Monday.
A 17-year-old girl was outside getting something from her car when she was confronted by two armed men who held a gun to her head and told her to return to her home.
The girl's father saw the suspects walking his daughter toward the home and went to get his gun. He fired several shots at the suspects, hitting both of them.
The girl's mother also grabbed a gun and fired a round but did not hit either suspect.
The first suspect was pronounced dead at the scene.
The second suspect ran away, got into the first suspect's car and contacted his brother to take him to the hospital. He is in critical condition with gunshot wounds to the chest and both thighs. Police say he will face charges.
No one in the home was injured.

Great story of self defense - I like that the mother picked up a gun and shot at them as well.

That's a scene straight out of the climax of Taken.

I only hope the surviving thug can be charged with Felony Murder for the death of his accomplice. No such opportunity exists here in Oregon.

Apparently MO does indeed have the law:
