Home invasion suspect killed in gunfight at apartment complex

[miles]

A home invasion robbery suspect died overnight when he jumped out a second-floor apartment window, apparently after his intended victims opened fire on the alleged intruders.

The incident happened at an apartment complex on Lancashire Circle near Stone Mountain.

Channel 2 Action News reported that a couple with two small children live in the apartment, and exchanged gunfire with the suspects.

One of the suspects jumped out a second-story window to escape the gunfire, and hit a tree before falling to the ground and dying, according to Channel 2.

A second suspect was found several miles away in the parking lot of a shopping center on East Park Place in Gwinnett County, and was taken to a local hospital for treatment of a gunshot wound.

Exactly.

This is why we need guns in every home.

That's the only thing I hate about NYC.

So two unarmed intruders where thwarted by an armed apartment dweller. The one who got shot lived. The other jumped out a window to their death.

And presumably your point it that this scenario is a justification for letting the so-called "gun show loophole" remain in effect and to to do nothing as a society to keep automatic weapons out of the hands of the mentally ill.

Do I have that correct?

Presumably you're a fucking idiot. Read the article again. Slowly.

I can read just fine. I still don't get your point.

Are you the new ace reporter for Atlanta Lit?

Not to jump in, but doesn't "exchanged gunfire" mean that the bullets were flying both ways?
Still, how dare they actually shoot at two men who had broken into their home?
tsk tsk

 

[Joeybagadonuts]

but they didn't need assault weapons to defend their property, did they?

 

[chillywilly2]

Not only that...the guns the robers had were legal...its the breaking in that was an offence

 

[chillywilly2]

but they didn't need assault weapons to defend their property, did they?

I don't know what they had, but it worked

There are laws against a private gun owner selling a gun to a convicted criminal?

Says the man who doesn't know what reading is.

Since the article didn't mention the armed or unarmed status of the intruders don't you think it rather presumptive for you to assume?

Besides, I think the operative word is "intruder".

Was this burglar a convicted felon possessing a firearm?

[KyleW]

Well clearly something like this happening, argues in favor of relaxed gun control.

I heard about this one time that someone escaped from a home invasion by throwing an 8 ball at someone's face.

legalized drugs, they save lives.

 

[Mike_Yates]

I would feel much safer going to bed at night knowing that a loaded pump-action 12 gauge is sitting right under my bed.

If a burglar busts in, I won't have to go hide somewhere and dial 911.

Either way the person had a right to defend himself and family.

 

[Mike_Yates]

Law-abiding citizens have guns to protect themselves from those who intend to do them harm.
