He Had a Problem With His Neighbor

So he broke into his neighbor's home and attacked him. It didn't work out too well. One dead, one hospitalized after self-defense shooting in Greeley

Upon arrival, deputies found the reporting party, the victim of the break in, who said he had been in “a long-standing feud” with his neighbor, according to the post. During the incident, the man told police, the neighbor had kicked his door in and come into the home with an object in his hand.

During a struggle, the victim shot his attacker. That attacker was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

The victim was also taken to the hospital and remains in critical condition.

While the investigation is just beginning, it doesn't seem that this is anything but self-defense based on what they describe in the article.

Weld County, Colorado is just north of Denver, with the county line being about 15 miles are so north of downtown Denver.

Self-defense is a human right, but I'm not sure how it is viewed in Colorado. (Hat tip to Keep and Bear Arms.)
