What can happen in Texas if you catch someone committing arson?
The perp better understand that Deadly Force....can be used to "prevent" arson....in the state of Texas.
Do you know the term “open season” in New Zealand?
“What can happen in Texas if you catch someone committing arson?”
Brought to you directly from the Concealed Handgun Laws in Teaxs....make a special note of 2A....
PC 59.42. DEADLY FORCE TO PROTECT PROPERTY. A person is
justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property:
(1) if he would be justified in using force against the other under Section 9.41 ; and 60 PC s9.43. TEXAS CONCEALED HANDGUN LAWS
(2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly
force is immediately necessary:
(A) to prevent the imminent commission of arson, burglary,
robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal mischief during the nighttime; or
(B) to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property; and
(3) he reasonably believes that:
(A) the land or property cannot be protected or recovered by
any other means; or
(B) the use of force other than deadly force to protect or recover
the land or property would expose the actor or another to a substantial
risk of death or serious bodily injury.
All sorts of things. Most of them involving lead.
