(Memphis) Memphis Police are searching for two men who are on the run after a home invasion in the 3500 block Bigelow in Frayser Wednesday morning.

Dareese Lee was in the house with his mother and his brother when he says someone rang the back door bell, “My partner opened the door to see who it was. That’s when they forced their way in.”

Lee said there were three men with guns but no mask on.

He said he was forced to the ground at gun point and his younger brother Kenny Davis heard the commotion from the back of the house.

“My little brother came around the corner and that’s when they started shooting,” said Lee.

His brother also fired back, hitting one of the men in the head.

Memphis Police said the suspect was pronounced dead on the scene by EMS.

Is it my imagination, or have the media started getting who exactly is the victim more correct over the last year or so?

They have no problem getting it right when the victims and suspects are all black. It’s usually when you throw a white person in there that their little brains get all confused.

Drat to close to home, better make sure gun is in reach easier. Guess I’ll have to go back to carrying in the house.

Not when 90% or more of the shooters and victims are black, they have no choice but to report it. :-)

Good to see that the 2nd Amendment works well for all races. The brother can shoot and the mother has the attitude. Now, my question is which candidate for President is more aligned with this family's political practices?

Kudos to the neighbor as well for the tourniquet to the neck.

I tried to find more details in other articles, but home invasion in Memphis seems to be the local sport.
