A 15-year-old boy died in Florida protecting his family's home and his 5-year-old sister from an intruder, police said.

Khyler Edman was home with his sister Thursday afternoon in Port Charlotte, 100 miles south of Tampa, when a man broke in, NBC West Palm Beach affiliate WPTV reports.

“A violent encounter ensued where we believe that teenager was trying to protect the home and protect their younger sibling,” Charlotte County Sheriff Bill Prummell said at a press conference.

Police initially responded to reports of an injured man running through a neighborhood in Port Charlotte. Authorities found the alleged intruder, identified as Ryan Clayton Cole, near Khyler's home, with several stab wounds on his hands and side. Cole tried to flee when authorities approached him, police said.

While apprehending Cole, the Charlotte County sheriff received another emergency call about a burglary. Canvassing the area, police realized two houses had been allegedly burglarized by Cole — one belonging to the 911 caller, and the other to Khyler's family. Officers then discovered Khyler dead.

They should have let him bleed out. Now, instead, try, convict, and execute him this month. Public execution.

Brave kid.

Sounds like he put up a real hell of a fight against a man much bigger than him.

I have to say that I expected a black guy.

I forget that there’s a LOT of bad white dudes out there too.

Not in the same proportionate numbers, but DEFINITELY out there.

Scary.

Thought the same thing, but realized because this has several “news” outlets, that the perp had to be Anglo.

True.

Like I said, there’s plenty of bad white dudes, but not in the same proportions. And that’s a huge difference.

Here the bad guys are wiseguys so don’t place bets with them, buy their drugs, borrow money or sleep with their women and you’ll be ok :)

Good people who we need in this country are being hurt or killed, evil people are not suffering and are protected by our government. Kinda wonder if this on purpose, which I think it is.

Thugs get free medical care, free food , free housing, meanwhile the innocent, if they survive, get to pay for their ambulance ride to the hospital, get to pay for their medical treatment, and have to continue to work to support their family and pay the taxes that supports the thug that caused their problem.

If law and order in this country isn't fracked up, I don't know what is!

I read that some of these perps end up committing suicide in prison. I guess it´s not enough because there are still a lot of them in prison.

Why didn’t the press write ‘white teen killed by white intruder”?

It happened on Thursday according to the video.

Why was it not in the news on Friday?

It is reported that he is presently charged with burglary and petit theft. Why not murder?
