I worry that this student may wind up in trouble. The cops and prosecutors in Baltimore City can be very quick to conclude excessive force was used when someone defends himself with a weapon. This is particularly the case where the perp did not brandish a weapon, as may be the case here (the article is uninformative on this point).

“I worry that this student may wind up in trouble.”

You have that right.

OK, but what was the medical student doing in the intruder’s garage?

I had to do a double-take on that. My first response was, "killin' a guy".
