You will eventually find an armed homeowner. Suspected burglar was shot by Provo resident | KSL. Or in this case, the homeowner's son.
File this under, "Another failure of the victim-selection process."
Lance Andre Hunter, 41, broke into a home and started a confrontation with some people inside. Two women ran upstairs and locked themselves in a room. Hunter followed. The homeowner's son, who have been arguing with Hunter retrieved a gun.
After Hunter pushed past the son, he went upstairs and "was attempting to kick in the door to the room they [the two women] had locked themselves in." That's when the son reengaged Hunter, this time armed with a gun, according to the affidavit.
He was shot once.
Despite being shot once, police say Hunter stole a vehicle at the hangar that had the keys still inside and tried to leave the area, but was stopped by responding deputies.
Provo, Utah is about a 40 or 45 mile drive south of Salt Lake City.
This sounds a bit like a domestic incident, but police are looking to see if Hunter is connected to other burglaries in the area.
However that plays out, self-defense, and defense of others, is a human right. This didn't take place in Massachusetts. Good Guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
