GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — A Gwinnett County home invasion backfired on the suspects when police say the homeowner shot and killed one of them, leading to the other two suspects now facing charges for their friend’s death.

Myles Coston, 19, faced a judge Wednesday charged with felony murder from the shooting that happened April 23. Geno Hall, 20, is also in jail charged with felony murder. Investigators believe that their accomplice, Leon Summers, was shot and killed because of the felony home invasion that Coston and Hall were involved in.

The victim and the suspects exchanged gunfire, according to police, killing Summers and injuring the victim. The homeowner is not expected to face any charges.

Georgia home-owners (even many democrats) have a different opinion as to gun-control as to those in D.C. In Georgia, gun-control means having your gun in your control and being ready for unexpected visitors.

Wish this would happen more often with dead perps.

Maybe they’d get the picture, but stupid people seem to rule the roost in our insane society - so maybe not.

Man, you don’t F with Georgia.

About 10 yrs ago, there was a 90 yr old widow near my mother in law’s house that shot at someone who was trying to come into her open window at night.

She can leave every single window open now and NO ONE will even THINK of going near her home. You don’t mess with Georgians in the country. Not. At. All.

Yup, the usual preferred racial group the democrats are always telling us are owed stuff. I don't care what America has to do at this point, I want this terrorism to come to an end.

Gun-control to me is this...

Tight group, center mass.

America needs more gun-control.

/sarcasm...just in case

Me as well. Deliberate actions that result in pain usually discourages others from mimicking that action.

If you peruse other stories at the WSBtv site on a regular basis, you will see that crime is increasing in Atlanta and surrounding suburbs and there are more and more shootings each day. However, there is also more stories of victims fighting back.

Once you get the reputation as the crazy old lady (or man—or couple), who has a gun and will shoot at anyone who invades your space, other Georgians tend to live you alone. (Or at least make sure they are welcome before dropping by).

It’s not that we are anti-social. Of course not. It’s just that we have boundaries and expect them to be respected.

When he was a young man, Japanese admiral Isoroku Yamamoto studied at Harvard. Yamamoto later planned the Pearl Harbor sneak attack.

Someone once remarked that Yamamoto should have gone to the University of Georgia instead. After a few days there he’d be too frightened to even think about attacking the United States.

The three home invaders are black yooofs. The homeowner who shot them could be black, white, Samoan. Anything.

There’s a reason why people in Gwinnett County never approved the MARTA train to be built in their county. They understood what MARTA really stands for.
