You have the right to defend your castle even if it’s the detached garage.

Cant tell if that was sarcasm or serious. But it really depends on the local/states laws as to whats considered your 'dwelling' and when you are 'justified' to shoot someone, beyond a clear threat to your life or loved one.

Any lawyer worth his salt is going to point out that the garage was a confined space and there was a disparity of numbers.

If the owner went into the garage through a man door and it closed behind him, that right there is a life threatening situation. 9:30 is after dark these days.

The report says nothing about a lawyer, but the police can not question him without reading him his Miranda rights. Either he is completely stupid, or he has had a lawyer present all the time.

A man in Texas defended his neighbor’s property while his neghbors were away on vacation. Some illegals were going in to rob the place, dude called 911 and they could not get there in time so he said what he was going to do and he did it.
Dude was not charged. So yes play stupid games...
