1 in the chest and still alive and
combative in the ER?

Pilfering dumb bum
He should have taken the Snickers Bar.

"Deputies said the intruder was taken to Providence St. Peter Hospital where he continued to be combative and curse at doctors and staff. Investigators said as soon as he recovers from the gunshot, he will be charged with burglary"

......then released....

After the last meal

Hmm, I thought it was supposed to be two in the chest and one in the head? Kudos for the homeowner being armed or else it may have ended differently.

Don’t be surprised if the suspect sues the homeowner for shooting him...

 

[2A2Dend]

That was my first thought after reading he survived.
Take note

This story just helps me confirm my choices of a) carrying at home and b) carrying .45 ACP, specifically Federal HST 230gr JHP... If yer gonna drop ‘em, drop ‘em hard...

He should be charged with more than burglary he attacked the home owner.

When I saw this on the news they said the home owner did nothing wrong.
mmmmm. I said he did one thing wrong.
He only fired one SHOT

I suppose if the thug fell down or something you probably cannot end his life if the threat had ended already.

Shoot until the the threat is done .
But I train with a DOUBLE TAP .
AND MORE IF NEEDED.

 

[nammac]

Mozambique... Two to center of mass, one to the head, rinse and repeat...

 

[Caveman Jim]

The home owner shot it with a .380 or a 9mm...

Do like the trained PROFESSIONAL cops and run it dry. There is plenty of evidence to support your actions. Now that I am not being flippant, continue to shoot until the attacker is on their back or back is facing you you.
