An unidentified man died at the scene after allegedly trying to rob an off-duty officer’s property in Weatherford, Texas, and being shot dead by that officer.

NBC DFW reported that the incident occurred around 1 p.m. in a warehouse which belonged to the off-duty officer.

CBS News noted that the Texas Department of Public Safety indicated “a business was being burglarized… and the business owner stopped the burglary.”

The 0ff-duty officer works in Arlington, Texas, and is now on leave while an investigation into the incident takes place. The officer was not injured in the incident.

My definition of self-defense is extremely broad. I’d like to see more crimes end up like this one.

Texas has some of the strongest property defense laws in the country.

And Florida has the weakest. You know, tourism and all that stuff, you can’t stop people who don’t like you from destroying your front lawn. Feelings and fear of being charged with discrimination count for far more than your outdated legal property rights. It’s a new world. Besides, it’s not who we are (anymore).

Don’t do the crime without walking around a cemetery for a few hours figuring where you could end out.
