Contrary to the byline there is no Carrick, PA. Carrick is a declining white trash neighborhood within the City of Pittsburgh (you'd think people who run a television station here would know that).
Perhaps the most famous people from Carrick are former MLB player John Wehner and the woman who used to suck Dick Morris' toes.
No names or races of the thugs. If they were white, the media would have used that fact in their headline!
Their names might also indicate their race, so were omitted.
Because we know that if we don’t tell you... maybe you will never figure it out!
Shooting when they are coming on to you is one thing, but when one is running away is a no-no. That’s OK for police, but not for a citizen.
Proving once again that a shotgun is the pre-eminent protector of the home for the average person.
N.B.: The movie they are filming is supposed to be a biographical sequel to white rapper Eminem’s movie ‘8 mile’. He was supposed to star in it, but I suspect he wisely realized that it was going to be a “Direct-To-Bargain-Bin-DVD”, so bowed out.

So a guy successfully defends his life and property and this is what they call a “deadly” home invasion?
More details: “...police believe that the two men entered the four-unit apartment building at 23 Merritt Ave., fired through the door of the first-floor apartment and entered. She said a man and his girlfriend were inside, and the pair pushed the man into a bedroom, where he kept a shotgun. The man then shot the two intruders.”
Fired through the door implies the intruders were armed.

While filming in Carrick, the product crew turned Merritt Avenue into “Brady Avenue” for the movie. (Which confused police.)
G_D I love a warm shotgun in the morning!
