Police say a 17 year old and 22 year old were shot and killed during an attempted home invasion. It happened in Indianola last night.
Officers say two men, armed with a shotgun, entered the home. They were dropped off by a third person.
Police say the two men attacked the homeowner who is a retired police officer. He suffered cuts. Police say the homeowner's wife showed the men were the safe was. That's when police say the retired officer grabbed a gun and shot and killed the 17 and 22 year old. Both were killed. A third person was arrested outside the home.

Looks like death is quite the occupational hazard for home invaders. Good.

Journalism FAIL! Where the HELL are the editors?
Officers say two men, armed with a shotgun...
So two guys holding one shotgun... got it so far...
That's when police say the retired officer grabbed a gun and shot and killed the 17 and 22 year old. Both were killed.
They were killed TWICE! WOW!

The title should be “2 Home Invaders Killed in Vermilion Co.”

I think this automatic death sentence for home invaders would be a good deterrent if we could implement it countrywide..

The title should be “2 Home Invaders Killed in Vermilion Co.”Given that the ages of the perps were 17 and 22, I'm surprised the paper didn't say, "Child, Youth Killed in Home Invasion."

They were killed TWICE! WOW! The homeowner must have determined it was a 'hate crime'.
That would call for killing twice.
