Home owner charged in home invasion

Two suspects in a weekend home invasion went straight to the police after the incident... because the homeowner shot at them.

According to police, it happened about 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon, 45 kilometres north of Roblin.

Two men kicked in the front door of the home, and the property owner grabbed a firearm.

At that point the invaders left... but as they were going, a shot was fired at their vehicle and hit the driver.

The culprits drove to Russell to complain to the RCMP.

The driver was treated for his injuries and released to the police.

Now, 28 year old Harvey Joseph Young is charged with Attempted Murder, along with eight other weapons and firearm-related charges.

Fifty- year- old Terry Eldred Curle of Russell and 37 year old Darren Norman Lindsay of Roblin face several charges each in connection with the home invastion attempt.

Blame AT. Apparently they are censoring something in it. 😛

That works. Nice fix for people exploiting FuseTalk ... just censor the problem, don't bother fixing it. :roll:

That's why the homeowner's in sh!t. He should have shot them while they were inside.

I am from texas and even I wouldn't have shot at them when they were already leaving. Of course, they wouldn't have had the chance, they would have been in pieces as soon as I saw them inside my house.
 
Guys, I think everyone that read the article realizes that he shot them while fleeing. The difference is, however, is that many police departments here would have said: "so, what?" and arrested the morons for burglary. I can't fathom how it was attempted murder, either.

If they were in the process of fleeing, what else could it be? It's obvious the life of the shooter was no longer threatened and his possessions were no longer threatened either.
