Burglars Unwittingly Put Victim In Gun Closet; He Comes Out Shooting


The victim of a home invasion managed to turn the tables on his attackers after they unwittingly forced him into his own gun closet.
 
The unidentified man was in his Houston home on Tuesday when three burglars suddenly kicked in the door, beat him up, and put him in an upstairs closet.
 
Little did they know, that closet just so happened to be where the man kept his guns.
 
Waiting until the coast was clear, the victim armed himself and exited the closet. He proceeded downstairs, where he encountered one of the three perps, and gunfire was exchanged.
 
The burglar was struck in the shoulder and leg; the victim was unharmed.
 
The two other intruders quickly fled the scene in a Chevy Tahoe. Their injured accomplice chased after them for a short while before collapsing on the street.



magnificent!

FYI... Darwin Award is awarded to people who die from blatant stupidity.  None of the burglars died.  And one could argue that they wouldn't of known there were guns in the closet prior to putting the victim inside, thus it's more of a case of bad luck than blatant stupidity.

Fair enough.  It's possible the one guy who collapsed died but Ill change the title.

You should assume every Texan you meet is armed or close to it.

Florida too.   I've carried for 16 years now... and I'm still floored by people I know, who seem completely liberal, clueless, stupid... and they have a glock in their car or carry like it's nothing.
