Lesson learned from this story - secure your valuables and lock your car.
May folks thing they live in a nice neighborhood but packs of feral yutes can cruise through at any time.
This has been all over the local Albuquerque news. The kids were in his home. He chased them out. They'd broken into homes in the area, even going so far as taking clothing (pants containing wallet and cell-phone) from bedrooms while the owners slept in the same room.
One of the dumb-assed parents even made a statement on TV that it could have been a family member of the victim who killed him, and not the kid. Really, the audacity of it all. Her little darling didn't do nuthin'.
