Sent to me once more by Reader Brad_In_IL, news of this happy event:
A licensed concealed carry holder shot and killed a man who broke into his home and charged at him early Monday.
The 33-year-old concealed carry license holder called 911 at 1:24 a.m. and told dispatchers he had shot an intruder inside his home in the 2200 block of East 103rd Street and had already begun performing CPR on the man, who had suffered a gunshot wound to the chest.
Good news:
Officers arrived and took over lifesaving measures, but the intruder, who remained a “John Doe” as of Monday evening, was pronounced dead at 1:43 a.m.
Even better news:
[Our Hero’s] home is across the street from the South Chicago (4th) District station.
Look, I know that there are few PhD candidates among the Violent Burglary Set, but even so… dude?
Anyway, a one-shot kill:
…and some applause, please:
Finally, according to the report:
Detectives are investigating the shooting.
Even in Chicago, I bet it’s going to set a record for “fastest investigation and clearing, ever.”
