Re: Firing through a locked door

There was a pretty famous case in Houston in the 80s. The guy hammering at the front and back doors was a confused foreign tourist. He scared the guy inside the house bad enough that he blasted him through the door. Homeowner was cleared, although there was a big stink about it it the time that he got off.
