Did he run out of bullets?
Love it when a good guy wins, and at least one bad guy is brought to room temp.
The Poconos, once a nice place to live, is now infested with NY and NJ scumbags.
And another ain’t feeling so good.
Upscale area. Did they break in to get them some privilege?
Is he a “good” guy? In reading the article, this was a targeted incident. Leaves a lot of questions.
Relatively speaking, I guess...
Rob someone in the Poconos?

Much more detail in this article:
State police say Tyheem Downs fought off five intruders at 5:45 p.m. Monday at his home in the 900 block of McKinley Way, near East Stroudsburg. A 23-year-old New Jersey man was fatally shot and another man was badly injured.
Police identified the injured robbery suspect as Unique K. Rainey, 23, of Scranton. Three others in the group fled the scene. Authorities did not release the name of the slain New Jersey man.
Downs suffered a minor injury during the fight, but did not need medical treatment, authorities said.
State police say the incident was an isolated one that targeted Downs and there is no danger to the public.
Someone needs to update his ‘Current City.’ He don’t live there no more.
Unique K. Rainey
What??!!
that’s why they didn’t release the name
“Tyheem ... Unique”
O.K., I’m going to go out on a limb here ....
