PHOENIX - Police say a young man has died after he was shot by a homeowner Friday morning in west Phoenix.

Phoenix police say the homeowner returned to his home to find four young males ransacking the house near 75th Avenue and Indian School Road.

Police say the homeowner was fearing for his own safety so he grabbed a gun and fired it, hitting one of the suspects. The other three got away.

Police say the male subject who was shot is 16-year-old Mario Barcenas.

Police describe the three other suspects as young Hispanic men with short hair.

“...the three other suspects as young Hispanic men with short hair.”

Three more reliable Democrat voters when amnesty kicks in. A real addition to the electorate.

It seems to me more people are shooting intruders than used to happen even two years ago. Maybe it's all these weapons people have bought since Hussein became the fake president, then he threatened to mess with guns. If you already have the gun, might as well shoot/kill the intruders.

Was going to pick up my PINK Ruger 22 LR today, but it rained hard all day and supposed to do the same tomorrow. Wednesday is sunshine, so I'll get it then. Going to put it on my PINK marble topped coffee table as a conservation piece.

“young Hispanic men with short hair”

That should narrow down the search...
