Prosecutors will decide if the shootings of three men suspected of breaking into a Detroit home were crimes or self-defense.
A homeowner shot and killed two of three men who allegedly tried to break into his east side home Thursday.
Police say three men, two adults and one juvenile, were breaking into multiple homes in the area. When they arrived at a home on Somerset, the homeowner was in the house and armed.
Investigators believe the man shot all three. Two of the men tried to get away in a car, but didn't get far before they died, Local 4 reported.
The 15-year-old teen stumbled away from the home and is in critical condition in St. John Hospital, according to Local 4.
Police are continuing the investigation

I'm wondering how long before there is the obligatory "I knew them/ am related to them" poster signing up to berate us about 'don't judge' the dead perps.

"The 15-year-old teen
stumbled away from the home..."
I'm guessing the story wouldn't be so 'wrenching' in it's emotional delivery to say the teen ran for his life when faced with a righteous homeowner and his boomstick?

Investigators believe the man shot all three. The bullet holes and the puddles of blood were a subtle clue. These guys are good...
To: Westlander
Hmmmn, bad work day for those perps.

If this had happened in Texas it wouldn't merit a second thought. But in Detroit the home owner is probably going up the river.

If any of us had done this there would be nothing for evidence 'cause the dogs would have eaten well that night.
