A 19-year-old man accidentally shot and killed himself Tuesday morning while he was attempting to rob a Grand Prairie home, authorities said.

Cameron Sands, 19, of Fort Worth kicked in the door of the house and then shot himself in the stomach as he pulled a gun out of his pants to shoot the homeowner, Grand Prairie police said. The homeowner was not injured.

After Mr. Sands shot himself, he dropped the gun and ran out of the home. Police found his body around 5:30 a.m. in the driveway of the home in the 2800 block Garden Grove Road, said Lt. John Brimmer, a Grand Prairie police spokesman.

?This is the first that I?ve heard of a robbery suspect killing himself as he is drawing a gun out of his waist band,? Lt. Brimmer said. ?The criminal evidence points to that. It certainly isn?t common.?

The Tarrant County Medical Examiner has ruled the death an accident.

This is what happens when you watch too many movies and actually believe the stuff in the movie is real.

Good to see that everybody in this thread thinks the death sentence is a just punishment for robbery.

I say the death sentence for a person attempting to commit murder during a robbery is just fine.

I'm more of a fan of divine intervention.

Or in this case, the intervention of stooopid. If he hadn't whipped out the gun and shot himself, we might have one dead innocent homeowner instead.
