And when the deputies arrived, it seems they had no difficulty in recognizing the good guy and not shooting him.Lynyrd wrote: ↑Wed Sep 26, 2018 12:37 pm http://www.kltv.com/2018/09/26/athens-l ... -gunpoint/

When I went to Texas.arrests.org, the miscreant named in the article makes several appearances over the years for drug-related and family violence charges in that same county. I wonder if the landlord knew his background?

Though considering it was Smith County, they probably shot his dog.... /soljames3 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 26, 2018 1:25 pmAnd when the deputies arrived, it seems they had no difficulty in recognizing the good guy and not shooting him.Lynyrd wrote: ↑Wed Sep 26, 2018 12:37 pm http://www.kltv.com/2018/09/26/athens-l ... -gunpoint/

Re: Property Owner Holds Burglar at Gunpoint
I read a couple of other news stories about this incident. And although the property owner is referred to as the landlord, I got the impression that the perp was not a tennant. But it is not clear whether or not that is the case.
