Sheriff Coy Reid Supports Armed Defense of Home

A homeowner shot an intruder in North Carolina on Monday, February 23, 2015.  An accomplice escaped.

The pair broke in through a basement window, then broke down a door to gain access to the house.  The homeowner called 911.  He armed himself with a 12 gauge shotgun.  When the intruders kicked open the basement door and approached him in a hallway, the homeowner shot one once in the chest.  The intruder died at the scene.

The Sheriff, Coy Reid, had some advice for people who would consider breaking into homes.
