A homeowner in Tennessee shot two intruders, killing one, Friday night after the men tased the family’s dog and held their teenage son at gunpoint, authorities said.

Officers in Murfreesboro responded just before 8:30 p.m. to the home in the 100 block of January Street and found a masked man with multiple gunshot wounds at the front door of the home, the Murfreesboro Police Department said.

The alleged intruder, identified as 52-year-old Kevin Ford, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The other intruder, identified as 42-year-old Clifford Wright, was located at the Salvation Army on Main Street with multiple gunshot wounds, police said.

The homeowner is not facing any charges in connection with the shooting, police said.

“Tennessee is still a 2nd Amendment supporting state.”

It won’t be for long if our Gov. Lee continues to get squishier on gun control.

In NJ the homeowner would be under arrest for the crime of self-defense.

The perp that survived is in jail on a $700,000 bond. Maybe he will stay there for a while.

When cops are not allowed to do their job, the citizens will do it for them. As “woke” prosecutors and judges allow the thugs to continually commit crimes with minimal punishment they will continue to commit crimes of increasing levels of violence until they commit such a horrible crime that the judiciary is forced to lock them up. The alternative is that a citizen will finally solve the problem much as what happened here.

It’s a shame that both of these scumbags didn’t assume room temperature. More range time required.

Under TN law, will he be charged with homicide since his partner was killed?
