The Beaumont Police Department responded to a report of a burglary in progress just after midnight on Friday, the police department reported. On the way to the home, dispatch told the officers that the homeowner had shot the suspect, who was located inside the home.

Upon the officers' arrival, they found the suspect, identified as 43-year-old Jason Omar Cruz, on the floor of the resident's bathroom in a "large pool of blood."

“Upon the officers’ arrival, they found the suspect,..”

I HATE that I have to ask - WHO is the “suspect” and who is the “victim”?

It’s absolutely criminal that we, the people are not allowed to defend ourselves in our own homes nowadays. Good old American politicians…

In the bathroom?

The poor perp was probably just checking to see what was in the medicine cabinet while deciding whether or not to move into this nice home in his new country.

Hey gringo, what's in the fridge? Jefe, how much dineros you got?

In this case, the police actually stated the homeowner is the “victim” and that he had the right to protect his home.

Imagine what the illegals are thinking banning together like a massed military group on their way to invade another nation....strength in numbers in order to get their way.

He chose to be shot and left on the floor. I have no sympathy.

My 911 call would have included “No hurry, he’s not going anywhere”.
If the dirtbag bleeds out, so be it. I’d toss him a towel but be afraid to go near him before he stopped moving.

Not far from our community ‘Illegal’...... Jamie Sanchez Lopez is facing multiple charges after taking inappropriate pictures of a 9-year-old girl. He was walking behind her using his cellphone under her dress.

hmmmmm....too bad he didn’t bleed out....I have no sympathy for this kind of pond scum....had he expired, the overall gene pool would probably have benefitted.....I’m sorry....that’s the way I feel today....just got back from the store with two plastic bags of nothing that cost me $67 ....

If he were a dog I'd end his suffering.
