Tired from a long day at work, brothers Anthony and Peter Julien arrived home Tuesday night to find a bedroom light on and two bicycles in front of their Pine Hills home.
Anthony Julien went inside through the garage, a 9mm gun in his hand. One intruder was in Julien's bedroom to the right. Another man was pointing a gun at him from the dining room on the left. Julien dropped to one knee, knowing it was the stranger or him.
"When I saw he had a gun in his hand, I bent down and, 'pow,' I shot him right here," Julien said.
Both brothers opened fire. One intruder was killed, and a second was wounded.

This was big news in Orlando yesterday.
Good marksmanship from the Julien brothers....two less perps (well, definitely, one less) that area residents have to worry about.
Yes, Grenadans are hard working, upstanding people, those I have known and worked with over the years
one less intruder....one at a time.

If this happened at my house in NJ, my guns would have been locked safely in my upstairs bedroom....with no way to get to them! I hate this F-N state!!!
Cops....only minutes away, when seconds count.....
YOU are responsible for your own safety!
...he who hesitates is lost
LOL

“The Orange-Osceola State Attorney’s Office will decide whether charges should be filed against Anthony Julien, 50, or his brother, Peter, 57.”
On what basis? Failure to permit yourself to be shot by a thug?
“Under the state’s Castle Doctrine, however, residents can legally use deadly force to protect themselves against intruders.”
Gee, ya think this might qualify? Even WITHOUT the Castle Doctrine, though, this was a clean shoot. The perp HAD A GUN POINTED AT Mr. Anthony Julien!

I could have called 911, and in two days they let him go and they do it again," Anthony Julien said. "We shot them first and then called 911."
I love these feel-good stories, especially in the morning.
Oh man...that hurt to read.....
Uh oh, depending on the prosecutor’s or persecutor’s political affiliation or affliction, this could be bad for the Juliens. They arrived home and suspected that there were intruders in the house. The state attorney just might rule that they had an obligation to call the cops first. I can see it now: The castle rule does not apply because they were outside the castle.
Watch this one closely.
Here are two brothers with their priorities and their gun sights straight.
Amen.
