ELIZABETH CITY, N.C. A suspected robber was reportedly met with gunfire from a homeowner when he tried breaking into a house Friday morning in the 400 block of Bell Street around 6:30 a.m.
Tyrell Johnson Officials say they have arrested Tyrell Johnson, 38, who fled the scene and went to Albemarle Sentara Hospital for his two gunshot wounds.
The homeowner allegedly heard Johnson breaking in through the backdoor of his home and confronted him with a firearm.
Charges against Johnson are still pending.
This is still an active investigation and the Elizabeth City Police Department says anyone with information on this case can call the department at (252) 335-4321 or the Crime Line at (252) 335-5555.
Tyrell, you big dummy, consider yourself lucky.
How else he gonna git his money?
“Elizabeth City homeowner shoots man twice during attempted robbery..”
Only twice? Did his gun jam or was it a double barrel shotgun?
Seems open and close.
Perp breaks into home, gets shot for his trouble, unfortunately survives and runs off to local hospital for treatment.
What information could they possibly want?
Welcome to our neighborhood.
Homeowner needs some range time.
Especially since all the problems with the Nexus 6 units.
Just wait until he sees ships on fire!
1) Gun beats no gun
2) A hit beats a miss
3) Fast beats slow
4) Big holes beat little holes
5) Two holes beat one hole
If it is worth shooting once, it is worth shooting twice.
Ty didn’t come out too “rell”, did he?
Fortunately the homeowner lives in a free state.
In the communist states they have no right to self defense.
Tyrell Johnson. Didn’t need a picture.
Homeowner needs some range time.
It sounds like the homeowner needs to spend a little more time at the range.
In NJ the homeowner will probably get more time than the Perp:-()
In defense of the shooter, it’s possible to make two head shots and miss the tiny grey matter in the vacuous skull.
Center mass.
My first paternal grandfather to come to America landed in Elizabeth City, NC in 1616. We have been here a while.
Funny how armed citizens’ shots to hits ratio is almost 100%. While the trained professionals (law enforcement) percentage is much lower.
Tyrone Shoelaces? Bet he can’t!
Wow - he has his own officials to control the news about him....
