WATCH: Four Armed Thugs Run For Their Lives When Homeowner Fires Back!

Bowling Green, Kentucky — A Kentucky man was abruptly awoken at night when four men kicked down the door to his home.

Immediately grabbing his gun, the homeowner managed to shoot several shots at the thugs, scaring them off.

It was later reported that one of the thugs was hit, turning himself in to a hospital.

In the video, you can see a muzzle flash from the homeowner’s gun as the intruders begin to head down a hallway.

While I would have likely done the same in that moment, gots to be careful about shooting at them while they’re running away

Seeing many more invasions with multiple Dindus. Is this a trend?

Depends on the state and county I guess.

Any reasonable DA or LEO should realize that an armed intruder is a threat if he is in range.

Who's to say they aren't running to cover to shoot back ?

Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

“Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.”

Agreed but any reasonable DA or LEO should realize that any intruder that breaks though your front door is a threat if he is in range.

This guy did a great job.

I thought he was shooting at them as they were coming in, coming down the hallway.

Good job.

The perp was not running away. He was advancing toward the home owner when he was engaged.

Kentucky has a “stand your ground” law similar to Florida’s. The home owner does not have a duty to retreat and can use deadly force in the event of a home invasion. The law becomes less permissive once the perp leaves the house even if they are on the property.

Not with disparity of force on your side.

He was way outnumbered, and it was a surprise attack, and one could properly belive they were just retreating to regroup for another attack.

Varies by state law. In Texas, if you think the running perp has your property, you can shoot them in the back, front, side, arse, wherever until they either drop your property or are patently unable to offer a threat.

The thugs (mostly likely Dem voters) want the second amendment be stricken. They don't want the GOOD GUYS to have guns ...😀

Doesn’t Texas have an after Dark nuance too?

This is a perfect example of why a revolver is almost worthless. When you have multiple invaders or assailants, you want as many rounds as possible. My Glock 23 holds 13+1 and I can swap out mags in a second or two. A revolver holds 5 or 6 rounds and you’ll never reload before the fight is over.

My revolver has eight rounds, and I can reload almost as fast as most people can change mags.

It’s called practice.

You're the exception, not the rule. Practice with a semi-auto and you'll still be able to a lot more rounds down range than you'll ever be able to with a revolver.

In the dark, half asleep, possibly being shot at?

I wonder if the other three were magicians as well...
