| | Detroit homeowner shoots at intruders, hitting one in latest home invasion (MI)
OpSD --“The homeowner was able to retrieve his weapon, and fired off one shot, hitting one of the burglars,” Johnson said. “He ran away and collapsed in the driveway. The other burglar was able to escape.” The burglar’s wound was critical, and he’s not expected to live, Johnson said. “They need to stop going into people’s houses uninvited,” he said. Hopefully, the word will spread, and we can stop talking about these home invasions.
