Good job defending the homestead and for the parents teaching him how to handle a gun.
A brave 13-year-old Ladson boy fended off two hardened felons who were attempting to break into his house by using his mothers gun to protect himself while home alone.
The boy saw the men breaking into the back of his home, at which time he feared for his safety and grabbed his mothers gun, the document states. He began firing at them, and the Sheriffs office reported that they returned fire.
In a heated shootout, he shot Brown three times, and Bennett drove him to the hospital where he later died. The gray Chevy Sonic they were driving had bullet holes in it from the boy chasing them, the affidavit states.
Where is the media coverage of this brave young man. Without the protection of his mothers gun the boy, and probably his mother when she got home, would both be dead.
Guns Reports:
Two convicted felons intent on breaking into a Ladson, South Carolina, home last week were met with surprise when they came face to face with 13-year-old armed with a gun.

Thanks DesertRhino!
The boy looks well trained.
Just because someone is a six-time felon, it doesn’t follow that he is necessarily a skilled marksman. Do not be intimidated, do not back down!
