As I understand it from your statement, the shooter, having been woken, saw the kids leave, then went outside and waited for the kids to return, and when they did, he chased them and shot the kid from the rear. That would certainly change things. That could be premeditated murder. Gonna be lots of he said/they said.
Did the kids returning mean that they were going to ring the bell again? What a mess.
Don’t mess with strangers....lots of repurcussions....
D*mn...
From what I gather the kids had been ringing his house several times.

It wasn’t even 11:00 yet, on a Saturday night, when the murder occured, the guy was probably not asleep.
