At ~1:30 P.M. today a homeowner in Walden on Rolling Rapids experienced a home invasion. Two females who are not from the area, and traveled to the residence in a stolen vehicle, broke through a window at the residence. The home owner immediately dialed 911 while the women were breaking the window but shot each woman in the upper torso reportedly with a shotgun as they entered the home. Both women were transported via life flight to Memorial Hermann Hospital.

I hope the homeowner doesn't get charged by the grand jury. He did the right thing!

News said 2 women shot during home invasion. I sure hope the homeowner is okay. Any news on them.
 
might sound awfully cruel for me to say but those women put themselves in that situation. My Dh and I were just talking about getting me a lighter shot gun. I can shoot the 12g double barrel shorty but it knocks me down. Years ago I liked my 20g.
I told him I would ask you guys where I can get a good deal on one.
Local shop no big box please.
 
And the best range to refresh my skills. It's been 25 yrs since I've hunted and target practiced. Or went out to blow up some cool stuff.
 
Not to high jack the thread. I think the world had really changed and I spend quite a bit of time alone. I have a wonderful knife collection but everyone know you don't bring them to a knife fight.

Don't know what happened to all the other posts on this thread (they were valuable...should have been left), but good for the homeowner. How terrifying that must have been for him (really...just put yourself in that position and think about it for a minute). Emoticon Prayers to him and his family having to recover from such a traumatic event (and, I'm sure a mess after 2 shotgun blasts).
 
Easy to talk smack about shooting someone, but when you actually experience that and the retrospect that follows, it's a whole different ballgame recovery-wise for the victim. Thieves SUCK! The 2 female thugs got exactly what they deserved. No sympathy at all!
 
Be warned, would-be thieves who have the balls (or ovaries lol) to break into someone else's home and invade their private property! You're idiots if you don't believe that likely 85% or better of homeowners in this community are armed and ready to take you out if you enter our homes invited.
 
So glad the homeowner is safe. Don't give a rip about the 2 women in critical condition.

You could not have said that any better. I feel the same way. What a crappy thing to be left with. I do hope and send all my blessings to him, his family, and all of his neighbors.

I would. Not over sympathy for the thugs, but the what-ifs would cloud my mind in terms of my and/or my family's safety for a long time. You just never know how you're going to react in these situations, despite how you think you would. Trust me on that.

I agree. I hear a noise now and I'm up. The other morning at 1ish I woke dh. I said I hear a firetruck. He begrudgingly got up and then said how the hell did you hear and see a firetruck and ambulance from the living room? It was 2 blocks away lights only. I sat on the porch a bit and said a blessing. I did not fall asleep until 5ish and then got up at 7.
We all say what we think we would do. Every situation is different. When I'm home I'm not just sitting there waiting for someone. I'm sawing and hammering or scrubbing something off in another part of the house. Many times I'm outside in the garden not paying any mind to what the neighbors might be doing.
I wonder if I would hear someone sometimes when we can't hear each other from the other room.
I would hope I could react fast enough and without regret. But their would be sleepless nights.
on one of the other sites a woman's home was cleaned out. Like she was moving. They asked where. She said no way I'm saying, I do not feel safe in my home and I will have it on the market shortly. That's a f'd up feeling.

@bbk:
 
Shoot twice to the thoracic cavity to stop the treat... if still a treat, shoot once at the nasal cavity...
 
That's what I've been trained to do at the several defensive firearms classes I've taken... nobody shoots at the knees... that only happens in the movies.
 
If these two end up dying... well, should have thought about that before stealing someone's car and breaking into someone else's house.

Why not identify that you are home and the police are on their way in your loudest toughest voice?
 
Bad idea, I guess?

Why let them know you are there? That gives them the heads up to pull their weapons/point it in your direction.

Yeah I suppose. I really don't have any sympathy for these criminals. Makes me mad too. Just thinking what my options would be (if this happened to me) since I don't want a gun in my home.

From ABC13.com
 
At least one was flown by LifeFlight helicopter to Memorial Hermann Hospital. Both are expected to survive but they may have suffered lifelong injuries. The older suspect was out of surgery Wednesday night, but may be paralyzed due to a spinal cord injury. The teen suspect, who remained in surgery Wednesday night, may lose an arm.

There were two 911 calls made. Dispatch should have sent officers over immediately when he called the first time.
