Homeowner kills "alleged" intruder
A homeowner takes matters into his own hands and confronts a burglar who broke in. News 3's Anita Roman reports that the incident near Cheyenne and Lamb had a deadly outcome as police confirm that the man who broke into the home was shot and killed.
Police were called to the 4600 block of Crystal Peak Avenue around 4:30 pm Sunday evening. When officers arrived, the owner of the residence told them that someone had just broken into the house and that the intruder was dead.
Police confirm that the homeowner shot and killed the burglar.
"(The owner) was confronted by a subject that was burglarizing that residence," says Metro Police Lieutenant Lew Roberts. "That subject was inside that house either when the resident returned home and entered his residence or was inside. The suspect is deceased."
Neighbors who live nearby say whatever the case may be, the home owner had a right to protect himself and his property.
"If these burglars were actually watching him and trying to figure out what he's got in his house, maybe it was somebody he did know or somebody he had over that didn't give the person the right to break in to violate his personal space," says neighbor Anya Perez. "His home is where his domain is and the homeowner has every right to protect it."
The homeowner was taken into custody and is being questioned by police.
The burglar is only being described as a white male. Police have not released his identity. They are also looking into whether or not the two men may have known one another.
