Armed Father Saves His Family from Robbers

A father was at home in Houston, Texas with his wife, four children
and the children’s uncle when three armed home invaders entered
the apartment. As the uncle was surrendering to the criminals,
the father retrieved a gun and fired at the intruders, killing two
and causing the third to flee.

Police have questioned the armed citizen, but have made clear to
a local media outlet that they believe the father acted within his rights.
In the aftermath of the shooting, the family of the armed father
showed their support, with his son telling reporters that his father is a “great hero.”
