Authorities say a man walked into the home, armed with a gun, and demanded that the two women inside to give him money and valuables.

Some point during the ordeal the oldest resident, a 63 years old woman, found her gun and shot the robber in the upper body.

After being shot the suspect took off on foot, but passed out in a neighbor's yard.

(snip)

Shreveport police have connected the 16 year old to a previous burglary of the residence that occurred in mid December of last year.

He made a man’s decision to kill. He pays the penalty as a man.

Whew. I saw that LA dateline and was pretty sure Granny was in trouble. Then in the last sentence, I saw Shreveport and I knew she was going to be OK.

Shreveport?
I think that is the home town of Mr. Honda.At least they said so in their commercials back in the 80s.
Smile along with me, if you get it.

I don't get it but lets go pay some bucks to the host of our forum!

Best bike I have ever owned was a Honda 550 four. The new Honda 1100 four is for sure is causing by wallet to itch. And no more synchronizing carbs, it's fuel injected.

If this is the same 16 year old, then he has entered the larger life, and become one with the majority.
