Los Angeles, California – A Los Angeles homeowner was taken into custody early Wednesday after killing a home invasion suspect while a grandmother and toddler were in the house.
KTLA reported that police were alerted to a “hot prowl” at a home in the 11400 block of Swinton Avenue in Granada Hills around 5 a.m. Saturday morning. A “hot prowl” is a law enforcement term for a burglary in progress when the homeowner is present.
The LAPD revealed that “three or four” males broke into the house before the homeowner turned the tables on them and opened fire.
One of the would-be robbers was struck by the gunfire and died at the scene. The other three suspects fled the scene to an unknown location.
The LAPD suspects an additional suspect was injured during the incident after finding “a trail of blood.”
But the heroic homeowner’s actions did not go unpunished. Video footage at the scene shows the hero being handcuffed following the incident. It is not known at this point whether he has been charged.

This is far from the first time Los Angeles has acted outrageously against a gun-wielding homeowner. The Gateway Pundit reported last month that a father who defended his family and home from intruders had his gun permit revoked for allegedly yelling at the police when they visited his home.
Pat Walsh, one of the hero’s neighbors, revealed to KTLA that there have been burglaries “every day” and residents are “fed up.”
We’ve been having burglaries every day in this neighborhood. So, I’m not surprised at all.
It’s been a real problem. Residents here are fed up.
Another neighbor fully supported the man’s actions in defending his home and expressed hope this could stop the robberies.
The suspects messed with the wrong homeowner, so hopefully this will stop them.
It makes me feel good that people are able to protect their homes and stop these guys.
The Los Angeles Police Department is asking individuals to contact them with information regarding the incident.
(And we are not really following the constitution that closely any more)(Too many Biden type tyrants/deep staters out there). Sad.
The ruling is wrong. It is unconstitutional period. Detainment “unrestrained” is different. But once the cuffs go on you are legally arrested by the very definition. If you will notice some states do it and others do not. Why? Because those that do not do it know it is unconstitutional.
Again... It presumes guilt before it can be proven. If an officer is sure he can prove guilt then arrest them. Until then they are an innocent party who is having their presumption of innocence rights violated. Any case law to the contrary is wrong and has rendered an unconstitutional ruling.
There’s a great video on youtube — NEVER talk to the police.
Has a defense lawyer explaining it.
NEVER talk to police - even if 100% innocent. Maintain silence and wait for your lawyer to be there.
“But once the cuffs go on you are legally arrested by the very definition.”
That’s factually incorrect. A not so rare misunderstanding to be sure, but wrong nonetheless.
Ultimately he wasn’t charged......................
If one should ever find oneself in this situation and having to deal with the cops, keep your mouth shut and don't say anything except this:
(Respectfully) "Officer, I'm not feeling well right now at all and I need to be examined by a physician."
Nothing wrong with adding a little affect to one's speech while saying this, as if one is about to puke or about to have a panic attack or whatever. At that point the cops take you to the emergency room instead of to jail.
Obviously, one does not wish to put this instruction to the test but there it is.
For me, it would not be an 'effect', it would be real.................
