rural NC teen shoots home intruder dead

[SamsonD]

With the New NC Castle Doctrine Laws it would have never went to court.  Now, you do not have to retreat as there is no "Duty to Retreat" or anything.  If anyone is on your property or in your car, you can shoot freely if you feel threatened.

And that's the way it should be.  Criminals should be afraid of getting shot.

'I just shot the man': Boy, 14, kills intruder after gang of FOUR men try to break into house where he was home alone with his sister

Yet another teen has used deadly force to protect his home from intruders.

Police in North Carolina revealed a 14-year-old boy shot dead an intruder attempting to break into his home while he and his sister were alone.  The teen opened fire with a shotgun while his 17-year-old sister hid in a closet as a gang of men attempted to smash their way into their home.

The incident took place two days before 18-year-old Sarah McKinley shot and killed an intruder breaking into her home in Oklahoma. While on the phone with 911, the young mother shot and killed one of the intruders with a 12-gauge shotgun after he forced his way inside her home. The teen, who was told to do what she could to protect her three-month-old baby, has been flooded with messages of praise from well wishers.

In the North Carolina incident, police said the 14-year-old and his sister were at home in the rural town of Henderson when four men tried to break into the house.

Michael Anthony Henderson Jr, 19, was shot dead.  He staggered away from the house and collapsed where he was found by police.  His brother Seneca, 20, and one other man Andrew Terry, 23, have already been charged in the case.  Police are still searching for a third man named as 21-year-old Jatwaun Davis.

Investigators released a 911 call with the teen calmly describing how he shot the intruder.

In the call, the teen, says: 'I just shot the man. He came around the corner. I shot him. He broke the whole glass out (of the back door).'  He continues: 'I don't know how many it was (who broke in). Just one came around the corner. I got one more in the chamber. I'm going to shoot again,' the boy said.

'Do not, while I’m on the phone, do not fire that firearm, OK?' the dispatcher says.

'What if another one comes in the house, ma'am?' he asked.

'Let me know, OK, if you see anybody. I will let you know (when a deputy gets to the house),' the dispatcher responded.

As the boy and his sister waited for deputies to arrive, he told the dispatcher that he was 'perfectly fine', but his sister was 'really shaken up'.

The boy even asks about the condition of the intruder.

'He's still outside. He's unconscious. I'm not sure if he's still living or not,' the dispatcher said.

'They only found one outside. Are you not sure how many it was?'

'I'm not sure how many it was, but when I shot, I didn't hear anybody running,' he said.

The teen's sister is earlier heard on a call to an emergency dispatcher saying someone was banging on the door trying to get in. She tells the operator she is hiding in a closet but that her brother has a gun.

Police said the teen will not face any charges for killing Michael Henderson on December 29.  Under North Carolina's Castle Doctrine Law, homeowners can use deadly force if they fear their lives are in danger.

The family has declined to comment since the shooting.

I really do love these heart warming stories.  Good boy, good...

The more publicity these stories get, the better it is for all of us as anyone will certainly think twice before even stepping foot on someone else`s property. 

[Parker]

Nothing says get the fuck out of my house like a 12ga shotgun.

Exactly,
now I am willing to bet that dead dude's mom is saying, "You didn't have to shoot my BABY!"
sorry, thems the breaks...you break into a person's house, expect the worst---like getting shot with a shottie...

[Voland]

At least the ugliest one got shot.

So he shot all 4?

[Bad Boy Dazza]

Fuck that bitch for telling him not to shoot again.  She could of got them killed.

[Dr Dutch]

What is the one on the top left a Twilight vampire out in the sun?

Maybe the picture was taken just when he was staring into the gun of that kid who shot him...

[Dr Dutch]

Aside from all the joking it's not very nice for a 14 yr old to have killed someone..

True - he should ave killed all four of them and saved the taxpayer a shit load of money.

Yes, maybe he should have reasoned with them.

jeb changed the FL law on his way outta office.  your vehicle/job is just like your work - no duty to retreat, castle doctrine now applies.

"Do not shoot again" the dispatcher said.

I say fuck the dispatcher.......easy for her to say,she wasn`t in any fucking danger........douchbag!

More guns = less crime. 

See - when all these animals get put down like the dogs they are - they will not be available to commit more crimes.

Be nice, but there's no cure for idiocy.

Depends on the circumstances. 

After a nice, congratulatory dinner at Golden Corral, I'm sure he'll be fine.  Being recognized on the national news, this kid has now become a pussy-pulling machine. 

[wes]

Jatwaun  hahahahahahahahahahah 

[Stefano]

It means boy has access to firearms AND ammo and know how to use them, which is a big no no for anyone who has basic knowledges about firearms.

Still, this well raised, educated boy obviously knows the meaning of life and has faith. But a shotgun is still way too dangerous, something less lethal should have been used. I hope he didnt see the bloody consequences of what he s done to that robber.

Something less lethal??  Should the kid have rigged the house with traps like that culkin kid in home alone?

Maybe attacked the intruders with a pillow as not to cause any long lasting injury? Lol

[polychronopolous]

Jatwaun  hahahahahahahahahahah 

Yeah I smirked a little when I read that too 

[johnnynoname]

WELL HELLO DARE

[Radical Plato]

Aside from all the joking it's very nice for a 14 yr old to have killed a oxygen thief.

Speculation: Was the dispatcher perhaps worried about the deputy that had been sent to the property?
