Polk county (FL) homeowner shoots home invader dead

[johncanfield]

"Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said an "out-of-control" man asked to be killed by breaking into the Winter Haven home of a U.S. Navy veteran Sunday morning.

The man, identified as 40-year-old Christopher Brian Deese of Auburndale, broke into one home and then went to William Cornwell's front door about 3:55 a.m. and started banging on it, deputies said."

Story here. Stupid is as stupid does. Amazingly this is the second time the home owner has had to shoot at an intruder.

Read the comments following the article. Funny.

""Cornwell then fumbled with the gun, and a shot went off into the floor."

Typical Navy! LOL!"

Yeah, I caught that! At least he got the job done without any harm to him or his family.
