Detroit police said a store owner on Detroit's west side shot three men who were allegedly breaking into his business early Friday morning, killing one of them.
Police said the 51-year-old owner heard the men breaking into his liquor store on Joy Road near Ohio just after 3 a.m.
He opened fire on them, killing a man in his 20s.
The other two were critically wounded and are hospitalized, police said.

The guy is Chaldean, they're the only people with guts enough to own party stores in Detroit. And for what it's worth, they own most of the party stores and gas stations in the communities outside of Detroit too. They work hard and usually employ all their family members too.
I've been getting my gasoline from the same Chaldean owned BP station by my house for the past 11 years. I know the owner, his wife and all the kids and they would do anything for me. Whenever I enter the store it's alwas "Hi Mr. Don, how are you doing".....They're a great family and almost every weekend they're letting some school or church kids conduct a car wash on the lot.
What pray tell is a Chaldean?
Or, Dirty Harry might say, “Party’s over, PUNK!”;)
As explained to me by a softball teammate here in suburban Detroit who is a Chaldean, they are Baghdad Christians........They are NOT muslims and if you were to ever insult a Chaldean by calling him a muslim he would likely kick your butt. While some segments of our society tolerate some muslims, the Chaldeans have nothing but hatred for them.......and rightfully so.
Chaldeans will usually have Christian iconography in their stores, too. My pharmacist had a crucifix and a picture of the Madonna and Child behind his counter.
Quibble: It’s an okay news story — it would a good news story if one had been wounded and two killed, and a great news story if, well, you get the idea. ;’)
I saw a mention of 3 robbers killed and another wounded in Detroit on the local news earlier tonight but I wasn’t watching and didn’t catch the details.
This is why one needs normal capacity magazines.
Good shooting, Citizen. Civilization thanks you.
Sounds like a script”Olde Clint” could use;” A Gut Full of Double Ought”!
If this were to happen often enough crime would go down......even in Chicago.
