Man fatally shot by resident in 600 block of Independence Street
Police say a suspected burglar was shot to death around 12am Saturday in the garage of a residence in the 600 block of Independence Street in New Orleans.
The shots were fired by a resident of the home.
Investigators say a burglar alarm was trigged and the alarm company notified those in the house that a motion sensor indicated activity in the garage located in the rear of the home.
One of the residents went to investigate and fired multiple shots after encountering the suspect.
No charges have been filed as the investigation continues. The NOPD says detectives will consult with the District Attorney to determine if any legal action is necessary.

Not much detail in this reporting
Who care’s one less Obama voter to worry about.
Multiple shots are always better than one shot. Two in the heart, one in the head, and then check to see if the "immediate danger" has passed.
“Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say dey gonna rob my house?
I must’ve heard it wrong. I always thought the phrase was “two to the face, one to the knee”...
If you wound them and they live, they could end up owning your house! I like the 3 shot method.
Who Dat?...........BANG!......................
The homeowner repeatedly requested for the man to leave. He shot when the man advanced towards him. This young couple are now receiving death threats because of the shooting, which was in my opinion, self-defense.
With all the random gunfire in New Orleans, it was just a matter of time before a burglar got shot.
lmao!
