Re: FL: Home invasion stopped

Three women were charged in connection with the home invasion robbery where the 82-year-old man fatally shot a robber.

They and the deceased robber had reportedly "rehearsed" for weeks. I guess their scenarios did not include finding an alert, armed homeowner.

Re: FL: Home invasion stopped

Update with some details: http://www.tallahassee.com/article/2009 ... ls+invader+" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The "alleged" robber lived over a hundred miles from the robbery target, which is a rural area in the Florida panhandle.

If anyone thinks it's silly to carry at home, this story should settle the issue.

Re: FL: Home invasion stopped

You're welcome.

I set up an alert on this case. I'll post any updates.

I post as many of these as I run across. They occur practically every day somewhere in the U.S.
