The family that shoots together stays together
I missed this when it came out Monday, but the lesson it provides is timeless:
HOUSTON -- One man died and another was hospitalized after a family caught several men invading their northeast Houston home Monday morning, police told Local 2.Police said four men tried to break into the home on Lakewood and Jensen drives when the homeowner and his family arrived at about 1:30 a.m.
Investigators said a gun battle broke out between the family and the group of intruders.
Authorities said the intruders fled to a home on Willie and Terrell, where one of the men died from a gunshot wound. Another man was transported to Ben Taub Hospital. His condition was not released.
That a gun battle broke out between the family and the intruders suggests the family owned several firearms and that at least both parents, if not also the kids, were acquainted with their use.
Stealing vehicles in Texas is also hazardous.
