Dad Yells at Car Burglars, Daughter Gets Shot

Is your car, or anything in it, worth you life, or the safety of your family? Man shoots at home after attempted car theft, Texas cops say | Rock Hill Herald

I'm guessing that this isn't how he saw things working out.

A dad noticed two men near his vehicle through his home surveillance cameras on April 22, the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office said in a May 8 post. He yelled at the two men and they then ran off.

One of the men returned in a vehicle and fired gunshots at the home, deputies said. The bullets struck the front door, window and the homeowner’s daughter, according to deputies.

He had to apply a tourniquet to his daughter's injury.

Bexar County, Texas is home to San Antonio.

Deputies did manage to track the guy down, via security camera video, and charge him with assault with a deadly weapon, thanks to fingerprints on the car. And they recovered two stolen cars.

If you are that worried about your car, or its contents, you might consider parking in a more secure place. And are you really sure that you understand all of the follow-on effects you might be unleashing by confronting bad guys, just so you can speak harshly to them?
