Lots of good his firearms did him, locked up in a safe where he could not get to them to protect himself, his wife, or their property.

Hi,

Great, I'm headed up there in a couple weeks for a lodge meeting, guess I better take my .45. Oh wait, I always have it with me anyway!

Port Angeles homeowner shoots at would-be robbers | www.kirotv.com

This link is for a separate home invasion in the same area. This time the home owner took a shot at two guys.

It may be the same people responsible for both events.

These were close enough to home that we have started locking our doors at night.

Two of the punks in the second robbery attempt have been arrested after braging about their exploits and getting shot. I know the 70 year old man who they tried to rob and they are lucky he had a gun and not a baseball bat as he would have just beat them to death with the bat. They picked the wrong guy. Also he knew one of the perps as he had sponsered him on a BMX team when he was a kid.
Louie is a good man and is allways helping kids. Happy that everything turned out ok for him.

At that time I would not answer the door, but would cover it.
