It is generally speaking a bad idea to break into an occupied home. New Iberia apparent self-defense shooting leaves 1 hospitalized | KADN
Police in New Iberia responded to a shooting at 11:30 in the morning. Perhaps the would-be bad guy thought no one would be at home. The homeowner shot the intruder.
[Capt. Leland Laseter with NIPD] said the victim was taken to a hospital in Lafayette for treatment.
He added at this point in the investigation, it appears the person was shot in self-defense.
New Iberia, Louisiana is about a 20 mile drive southeast of Lafayette, or about 45 miles southwest of Baton Rouge.
The guy who got shot was listed in critical condition.
Since this took place in Louisiana, and not in New York, the finding of self-defense has meaning.

New Iberia is in the congressional district represented by Clay Higgins. When he was with the Sheriff down there, he showed grace and mercy served up with a hard as nails attitude about the criminal. He made videos on YT calling for the crim to turn himself in. He would name and shame them. His appeals did result in many surrendering to the law.
ReplyDeleteThey should publish these guys. On billboards a photo of after being shot. Or, videos of the idiot of the week of him leaking on the floor.
