Woman kills home invading sex offender, KLTV, Tyler, Texas, 02/10/15
A woman was at her Van Zandt County, Texas home when she became aware of a man
attempting to gain access to the house through a side door. The woman retrieved a gun
and shot and killed the intruder.
It was later determined by local media outlet KLTV that the home invader was a
suspect in an arson investigation earlier in the week, had an extensive criminal
record, and had only recently been released from the county jail on charges of
failing to register as a sex offender.
Van Zandt County Sheriff Lindsay Ray expressed his support for the armed citizen,
stating, “Presently, as the result of underfunding and inadequate staffing at the Van
Zandt County Sheriff's Office, homeowners need to take appropriate precautions to
protect their families. I will continue to support the law abiding citizens of our
community when they are forced to take actions to protect their lives, liberty and
property.” (KLTV, Tyler, Texas, 02/10/15)
I immediately thought how great it was the woman had a gun and knew how to use it.
I'm sure you felt the same way, no?
