Things didn’t go as planned for an alleged home intruder who got shot by a homeowner. Long story short, two criminals tried intruding into a home in Florida and the homeowner started blasting, killing one of the intruders.
The cops showed up and the sheriff said that home intruders should “expect to be shot” if they’re breaking the law and into homes they clearly don’t own. A syndicated report on MSN had more details:
The deceased suspect has been identified as 27-year-old Jorge Nestevan Flores-Toledo, 23, from Mexico, according to the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office. The second suspect, Michel Soto-Mella, 39, an illegal immigrant from Chile, is charged with armed burglary, with additional charges pending.
Just after 9 p.m. Thursday, the Manatee County homeowner saw the two men entering the back of his house on his video surveillance system, according to authorities.
“He knew something bad was about to happen and he didn’t stall,” MCSO Sheriff Rick Wells said during a press conference Friday. “He grabbed his firearm [and] told his wife to get into a safe spot.”
The homeowner fired multiple rounds, hitting Flores-Toledo “several times,” while Soto-Mella fled the scene, according to the sheriff’s office.
