Close to home for me! Rowlett is not that big of a city.
Once again why I always answer the door carrying and don't open the door to strangers.
ROWLETT, Texas -
A Rowlett man is still reeling from a home invasion and robbery last week. Police have arrested all but one of the suspects, but they're asking for the public's help to find the fourth one.

Greg Finster said he answered the door last Tuesday afternoon. Rowlett police said that's when 18-year-old Zachary Williamson, 20-year-old Tevin Bostic and a third man with the street name Boo-cat busted in.

"I'm convinced they were here to kill me," Finster said. "I had three guys in my face. They pushed me back on the floor like this."

He said the men robbed him, tied him up, beat him, teased him and taunted him.

That's a good policy but was his daughter a stranger?

The news video shows her at a store with the assailants using his credit card. This girls is trouble for sure.
Carry safe and carry when and where you can. I'm just sayin'.

She, the daughter Amanda, is dating one of the evildoers.
I doubt now that dad will pay for the "big wedding" she probably thought she'd have 13 years ago when she was 5.

According to the article it was the men only who came to the door and pushed him. She must have been waiting out in the car. Getaway driver maybe?

If the victim had shot and killed one or more of the invaders, while the daughter (if she was) waiting to drive the getaway car, could she be charged with the death(s)? I think they could.

I noticed that too. Must have been one of these:

Something similar (not pump but looks like one) here:

Yeah, how messed up would that be? You shoot and or kill one or more home invaders and your kid goes to prison. Whoa!
