DAYTON, OHIO Dayton Police Department arrived on the scene to find a 22-year-old man had been shot and killed by a 43-year-old female homeowner in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
What was shaping up to be just another great tale of home owners defending themselves took a turn for the strange when WHIO began to uncover the checkered history of the robber. Apparently, in 2013, DeBrandon Jurrod Dickerson, 22, of Detroit, had broken into this exact same residence. He was a teenager back then and he had attempted the home invasion with the assistance of another teenager. The female homeowner had a firearm then, as well, and shot either him or his accomplice in the arm. Both teenagers were arrested at the scene of the crime.
So Dickerson apparently didnt learn his lesson. On Thursday, WHIO is rushing to confirm but initial speculation is that it is the same homeowner, same house, and same culprit as last time. As if making an unsuccessful home invasion at 4:10 am almost precisely two years to the anniversary of the last time you did the same thing wasnt lesson enough.
This was Dickersons last attempt. He was shot at close range in the chest by the home owner and confirmed dead by the Montgomery County Coroners office.
Dayton Police Homicide Division Supervisor Sgt. Richard Blommel confirmed that DPD was first contacted by the woman when she reported that an intruder had gained access via the second story of the home. The intruder confronted the woman and he was then shot. Authorities confirm that even after the bullet struck his chest, he managed to escape back out through the second story and run three blocks before dying.
Sgt. Blommel reported that the woman had been brought in for questioning but charges are not expected to be filed against her mainly due to the fact it was a clear-cut case of self-defense.
You have a right to protect yourself if you fear for the safety of yourself and or your family, Blommel said to WHIO.
Second times the charm, right? Im pretty sure thats not how that saying goes.
Lesson of the day for criminals: If you attempt to burglarize someones home and you are shot and you survive, dont go back and try it again
Wait, wait, wait
What am I saying? Please do. This is working out extremely well. Just try not to bleed out on the carpet too much on your way out for your final 300 yard sprint to the finish line.
LOL now that there is funny!
Even more ironic, if he hadn’t run three blocks he might have made it to the hospital.
He was considerate enough in his last moments to step outside and not bleed all over the place.
One of the really sick things about this, is that it is extremely likely this recently terminated thug in training will, in the future be classified as a “child” killed by a gun.
There is apparently not a place to record as ‘good riddance to bad rubbish’
I love a happy ending.
Combined PING! and DANG!
I don’t understand this, either. He was just turning his life around . . .
He was turnin his life aroun.
It's hard to deduce the pronounciation from seeing the name in print. But I'll give it a try:
jih-RODD
It’s not like lightning or that other thing?
Think of all of the unsung songs he had in his heart. He was just getting it together.
TOugher than Baseball/.....Two Srikes..and Youre Dead!!
I guess he misunderstood the 3 strikes thing. Oops..strike 2 and your ooooouuuutt.
Early retirement.
I suppose he was betting against that ‘lightning striking the same place twice’ thing. It happens.
That is just hilarious! I'm now a Key & Peele fan! Thanks!
