Police say two men attempted to break into a home on the 4100 block of South Hughes in Amarillo this morning.
The homeowner, police say, used a long gun to shoot one of the suspects. The other alleged robber managed to run away.
When police arrived at the home, 4117 S. Hughes, they found one of the suspected robbers lying on the ground with several gun shot wounds. They attempted to resuscitate him, but were unsuccessful.
Police are now searching for the second man involved in the invasion. Police have a vague description of him. He is a black male and was last seen wearing black clothing.
Witnesses say both suspected robbers have broken into the home up to four times in the past.

Long guns do the trick every time. Ask a passing deer sometime.

I love happy endings. : - D
** Bang - Ping! **
Does this fit the definition of homicide?
well, I guess it does fit the definition. I thought homicide involved maliciousness. It is merely the taking of a human life by another human. IMHO, this instance was entirely justified.
The “alleged robber” got OWNED.
Finally! Someone who knows how to deal with intruders.... "several gunshot wounds".... which usually leads to "attempted to resuscitate him, but were unsuccessful".
Ammo is CHEAP, use lots of it every chance you get!
Right. It’s a homocide.
Justified.
Not....murder.
Justified.
Not....murder."

But there is a 100% probability that the gun-control mafia will count it in their "Gun Deaths" statistics -- and if the punk was a day under 21, he will be counted among the "Chillll-dren Slain By Guns" stats...
Oh, right you are.....
I admit. I looked up the definition of the term.
Police: Homeowner Allegedly Shoots Robber
??
Per my lawyer, the protocol in Texas is to keep firing until the threat stops. Generally, this is when the person surrenders or falls over and stops moving. Don’t go over and shoot him again to make sure he’s dead, but don’t stop shooting just because you’ve hit him once or twice.
Note to you revolver users - you don’t have enough rounds to do the job if the guy’s hopped up on PCP or worse. PCP-heads have been hit by six .357Mag JHPs and kept coming.
