OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Prosecutors won't file charges against an Omaha business owner who shot and killed a suspected burglar over the weekend.
Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine says he believes the shooting was justified. The owner of Bazar Latino who shot the man has not been named.
Police say 23-year-old Jesus Franco was found dead Saturday morning. His body was in the snow about 30 feet from a south Omaha business that had reported a burglary.
The owner told officers he fired his gun during a confrontation with a suspected burglar, who then fled.

Wonder what his legal status was. Just committing crimes American citizens refuse to commit?
He won’t get robbed again.
So,,,,, Jesus got shot in Nebraska? Thats a hard land up there,, yes sir.
Of course, they showed the girlfriend of the perp on TV saying he had just broken into the place, did not deserve to get killed over that.... I was pleased to see that no charges would be filed.
Did you know that Omaha is in Nebraska not Oklahoma?
