Tennessee homeowner kills intruder, wounds second after they allegedly held teen at gunpoint, tased dog

I came across a fascinating article today about a Tennessee homeowner who took matters into his own hands when two intruders allegedly broke into his home, holding a teenage girl at gunpoint and tasing his dog. According to police reports, the homeowner grabbed his own gun and fired, killing one intruder and injuring the other.

This incident took place in East Memphis on Sunday night, with the homeowner telling police that he heard a commotion outside his home before finding two men inside. The suspects reportedly held a 16-year-old girl at gunpoint and used a taser on the homeowner’s dog, prompting the homeowner to take action.

The homeowner went on to explain that he acted out of fear for his own safety and the safety of his family. In the heat of the moment, he felt it was his only option. As of now, the homeowner has not been charged with any crimes.

This story highlights the importance of self-defense and the right to protect oneself and their property. It is also a reminder of the potential dangers of home invasions and the need for homeowners to remain vigilant and prepared for any situation. While tragic, this incident serves as a powerful reminder of the responsibility that comes with gun ownership and the difficult decisions that can arise when faced with a threat.
