“No mention of what firearm was used by the home defender.”
I hate it when the media fails to provide such important information. I like to know the type of firearm and the brand of ammo used. If a shotgun, I’d like to know if it was loaded with .00 or with bird shot. Providing that information would be a great contribution to market research.
You do realize that the typical media person covering local news does not know the difference between a shotgun and a polish sausage. His/her conjecture if added to the story would probably be very entertaining however.
Forewarned is forearmed. What to expect? Four perps with handguns? A couple of rifles? The AR-15 with 30 round mags starts to look like an essential home defense weapon if the media inform of the potential danger.
