A Houma, Louisiana, homeowner heard strange noises shortly after 5 a.m. Tuesday and went downstairs to find an alleged intruder, whom he shot in the forehead.

4WWL reported the alleged intruder, 34-year-old Dex Herbert, fled after being shot. Police used a K9 to find Herbert a few blocks away holed up in another house.

WGNO noted a second suspect, a female named Tye Corbitt, was discovered in the same house as Herbert. She was allegedly holding a handgun when police located her and she was also arrested.

I’d say thats gods way of saying, you best straighten up.

It's probably the last warning shot this dude will ever get. Pay heed.

Yep, they’ll bounce. The forehead is the thick part of the skull. It’ll still ring your bell though. 😉

(Some of my best friends are Cajuns)

-—————wiki-——————

The first usage of the term “Cajun” came about during the American Civil War, during the U.S. invasion of French Louisiana.[7]

After conquering Vermilionville, the capital of Nouvelle Acadie (New Acadia) in 1863, Lieutenant George C. Harding of the 21st Indiana Infantry used the term “Cajun” to describe the region’s inhabitants:

I will try and tell what a Cajun is. He is a half-savage creature, of mixed French and Indian blood, lives in swamps and subsists by cultivating small patches of corn and sweet potatoes. The wants of the Cajun are few, and his habits are simple... I can not say that we were abused by the Cajuns.[7]

That’s a tattoo on her forehead. At first I thought it was a Borg implant, 7 of 9 on meth or something..

5 AM? Odd hour to go do a robbery. I bet drugs were involved.

Head shots save ammo. Just need a heavier caliber.

I don’t what to think about a person who gets shot in the forehead and then flees the scene.

His nickname is "Ironhead".

Dead men tell no tales. Never let them get out once you put a pill in them. Otherwise it will be: I had my hands up and begged him not to shoot me.”

Fortunately for the homeowner, the intruder was white.

So no one cares.

45 ACP, because short, fat and slow will get the job done.
