Bad Boys, Bad Boys, What You Gonna Do.......

Whoa!

This happened Tuesday May 24 less than a mile from my house.

Ellis County

2 suspected burglars shot inside home

An Ellis County man shot two burglary suspects in his son's

house in the 2800 block of FM85 near Ennis

shortly after noon Tuesday, officials said.

One of the suspects was dead at the scene

and the other was in surgery hours later at a Dallas hospital.

His condition was unavailable.

Ellis County Sheriff's Department spokesman Lt. James Saulter

said a neighbor saw the two men knock on the front door

of the single-family home, then drive around back.

Suspicious, the neighbor called the homeowner's

father, who lives next door to his son and was on his way home.

The homeowner's father, who Saulter said has a concealed handgun license,

confronted the two men inside his son's home, where they were in the process

of carrying some of his son's guns toward the back door.

The homeowner's father called 911 after the shooting.

Saulter did not identify any of the men involved in the incident, pending
notification of next of kin.

This happens all too often in our neck of the woods,
it's remote and criminals know you're most likely at work.
I've been burgled at two different residences and let me tell you, it feels awful!

We do have the Castle Law but...

I don't know about killing someone over possessions.
Then again, I wasn't there, maybe the criminals had their own guns!
These Texans do seem to love their guns.
What would you do?

Till next time,
