17-Year-Old Retrieves Shotgun, Shoots Two Masked Home Invaders Dead

Three armed men attempted a home invasion of a residence in Texas. However, two of the home invaders never made it off the property because a 17-year-old blasted the alleged burglars with a shotgun.

Three armed men wearing masks broke into a home in east Harris County around 10:40 p.m. on Friday, police said. Inside the home were an adult female, a 12-year-old boy, and two 17-year-old males. One of the 17-year-old reacted to the break-in by grabbing a shotgun.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said the 17-year-old fired several times and struck two of the suspects who allegedly broke into the home in Channelview – a suburb east of Houston.

Police found the two men unresponsive and suffering from gunshot wounds at the home. The two suspects were pronounced dead at the crime scene by emergency management personnel, the Harris County Sheriff's Office said.

The third suspect fled the home and drove away in a dark-colored four-door sedan.

None of the people already in the home were harmed.

The identities of the shooter, the deceased suspects, or the man who got away have yet to be revealed by authorities.

I hope this is a good guy with a gun story.. but often... these sort of things are drug related.

Time will tell on this one.

It bothers me that the third criminal got away. Maybe the lad "only" had a double barrel shotgun?

Even if it’s drug related, it sounds like a happy ending.

“but often... these sort of things are drug related.”

how does that matter ?

if it was than 2 bad people are not going to be doing any more crimes or supported by the state, and 2 will be in jail for a while (hopefully).

The 870 Remington short-barrel, loaded with double ought buckshot is the best in-home weapon bar none. Stand one at the ready by your bed post and sleep tight tonight.

So that's why Dementia Joe kept insisting on mask mandates. To allow his BLM criminals to put on masks and carry out robberies without raising suspicion.
Well shooting them dead solves all that BLM armed robbery problem.

I have a Mossberg 500- virtually the same shotgun (but better) and I agree with you 100%. I load mine with alternating shot/slug rounds. First round - shot. A truly devastating weapon in close quarters.
