A warning shot perhaps would have been enough.
But in cases like this had the teen not been in the guys yard a 2 am there would not have been these events.
Why exactly was the teen out at 2 am?

Duuugh......
Looking for something to steal.
Why exactly was the teen out at 2 am?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Walking home from the local library where he and some of his peers were in a study group for final exams - after they did the 4-12 shift at the local seniors home.
If the 4-12 job paid 10.10 an hour rather than the 8.00 they are making, they could ALL afford a car, get off of food stamps and be able to move out of the bad neighborhood the ‘crackas’ are forcing them to live in.
On his way to 7-11 for some Skittles, ice tea and cough syrup.
Not only that, the yard that he was in at 2:00 AM was surrounded by a fence with a closed gate. About a week or so ago, another man in Metairie heard a noise in his yard at about 2:00 AM, came out to investigate and found someone trying to steal items from the back of his truck. The thug in this case shot the home owner in the leg before taking off. They still haven’t arrested him, but when they do I’ll bet he gets charged with aggrevated battery instead of attempted 2nd degree murder.

He was stealing. I recall the case. The boy’s older brother, sort of the head of the family, said that the teenager was a “professional thief” at 14. He seemed to have a bit of pride about it. He said, however, that his brother would never hurt anyone.
