From the early information available to police yesterday, it appears a burglar made a fatal mistake in the victim selection process as he was going about his work.
The King County Sheriff's office says an unidentified man was shot and killed by a homeowner as the man and another suspect attempted to break into a house where a man and his two children were inside.
The other suspect fled the scene before police arrived.
Just after 11:00 am SeaTac Police received a call of a burglary to a residence in the 17600 block of 38th Avenu South and shots being fired. |

Kudos to the homeowner.
By ridding society of this miscreant he prevented untold number of crimes and cost to the county and state.
This is the only punishment that deters criminals. They have no fear of the justice system with its bail, plea bargain and parole. Most crimes against property won't even garner a week in jail. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
