Violent Home Invaders Call Police to Complain About
Victim

Two men called cops when another man
began shooting at them. Fair enough. Oh, but wait. There's a bit more to the
story here. It turns out the two men had allegedly broken into the third man's
home and began beating him on the head with a baseball bat. He eventually got
away, grabbed his gun, and fired two warning shots in the air. This is when the
alleged intruders actually called police.
The two men, said to be homeless and,
judging by their mug shots, certainly showerless, reportedly barged into the
man's home because they believed he had complained about them to authorities.
Reportedly, they brought a baseball bat
and several aggressive dogs with them. They allegedly attacked the homeowner,
causing damage to his head, face, and back.
The victim managed to grab a shot gun
and fire into the air, sending the men fleeing. They then apparently ran
into a nearby residence and called police to report that a guy was shooting
at them. These are some ballsy, and pretty dumb, alleged criminals, for
sure.
I'm not sure what to make of this. Are
these guys just extra super duper stupid? Or are they so entitled that they
think bashing a guy on the head with a baseball bat is fine but getting shot at
in retaliation is not?
The pair were arrested and charged with
assault. So far no charges have been filed against the victim, who was brought
to the hospital.
I'm still aghast that these dudes who
allegedly assaulted this guy were shocked when suddenly they were in danger! It
really takes all kinds to make a world -- but we could all do without this
kind.
