The story, perhaps intentionally, suggests the homeowner fired at a kid who was trying to steal his car. That alone raises the question of whether homeowner was justified in using deadly force. So I was tempted to break FR tradition and read the article.
Sure enough, it sounds like this elderly homeowner knew what he was about:
...two of the individuals "quickly approached him," Covelli said. The man said he saw...one of the teens "holding something in his hand,"...
Game over.

Imagine that, the Fake News Media put behind the eight ball by a 75 year old law abiding geezer.

“And authorities found a “bowie-style knife” at the scene.
Car thief, at night with a Bowie knife, advancing on the home owner after he told them to leave.
The home owner did society a favor.
