Early Sunday morning, an alleged intruder was shot to death at a Warner Robins home.

That's according to a news release from the Warner Robins Police Department.

Ronald Lewis Burnett, 36, was found by officers unconscious and lying on the ground outside the house at 205 Thomas Boulevard.

He was taken to the Houston Medical Center and pronounced dead, having sustained an apparent gunshot to the chest.

Officers were told that Burnett tried to break into the house and was shot by 32-year-old homeowner, Travis Lucas. That happened around 1:25 a.m. Sunday.

Neighbor Danielle Haring says she heard at least six gunshots but thought it was from a couple of streets away. When she realized it was her neighbor's home and saw police she said she went outside to check things out.

No other information has been released at this time because this is an active investigation.

Just a wild guess that this might be the guy.

” Homeowner Allegedly Shoots, Kills Alleged Intruder Early Sunday Morning “

Just another reporter trying to use the English language without understanding the meaning of the words. I guess they also would say that he’s allegedly dead, allegedly!

Surprise. It seems that Mr. Travis Lucas is also known to the authorities. (Warner Robins is located in Houston County, GA.)

When did “Non White” become a race?

You have an alleged interrogation?

Wow, close by! Bet it was in the Davis Drive area. Lots of low lifes in that area.
V alerted me to this story. I have to find out from a FReeper in CA about what’s happening next door!

I think it is appropriate for the media to say he was an alleged intruder.

After all, it is within the realm of possibility for a person to invite someone into their home, get into an argument, shoot him, and then claim he was an intruder and the shooting was in self-defense.

It’s pretty unlikely, but it is possible, so it’s appropriate to say “alleged intruder” up to the point where the relevant authorities confirm that the dead guy was a perp instead of a victim.

Interesting. Does Georgia have no other designations for race than White and Non-white?

According to the map, two block (the short way) from Davis Dr.

You called it.
