Right away, the fact that the shell casings were said to be in the road, and not, say in the homeowner's driveway, adds a little suspicion...

Did he get the rims, and try to flee with them? Or did he give up and run as soon as the homeowner came out, and the homeowner ran out into the street, shooting at his driving away car?
Two totally different scenarios, with 2 completely different legal repercussions.
I agree there's not enough information to do a valid analysis.

Shell casings in the street do not preclude a good shoot. The victim's vehicle may have been parked in the street as well. There's also no indication of how the confrontation unfolded, whether or not the thief threatened the owner, or the location and trajectory of wounds on the deceased. The article doesn't include this important information.
:iagree:
I need more facts.
It is also unclear who called the authorities and reported the shots fired. If a neighbor called in the shooting, and the homeowner or the cousin did not try to contact authorities, it would imply some type of guilt IMHO. Either way there are still too many holes to get a clear view of what really happened. :tiphat:
