Wheat Ridge man who shot and killed home intruder won’t be charged
It took prosecutors this long to figure this out? PC idjits they are
A Wheat Ridge man who shot and killed a 24-year-old man during a November home invasion will not be charged after prosecutors determined it was a justifiable homicide based on Colorado’s Make My Day law.
The 1st Judicial District Attorney’s Office will not file charges against the homeowner, whose name was not revealed in a Wheat Ridge news release on Tuesday.
“This was a difficult case for our detectives as well as both families who were devastated by the death of the intruder,” Wheat Ridge police Chief Chris Murtha said in the news release. “Regardless of the crime that was committed, one family lost a loved one and another is faced with the long-term impact of taking a life in the course of protecting his family.”
Takwon Wilson was shot to death late on Nov. 6 inside a home on the 4600 block of Parfet Street, the news release said.
The male homeowner told police that the intruder, who he did not know, was aggressive, the news release said. The homeowner said he feared for his family’s lives and his life.
The resident fired one shot, killing Wilson, according to the news release. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Man fatally shoots another man who threatened him
Well of course no suspects were ‘at large’. The one and only suspect was taking up space at the morgue. Geez, these copy writers.
A man told Chandler Arizona police early Wednesday that he shot and killed another man who had threatened him, according to police officials.
Chandler police arrived at a home near Arizona Avenue and Chandler Boulevard at about 3 a.m. to find a man who was dead, said department spokesperson Detective Seth Tyler.
Before officers arrived, the shooter called police to say he shot a man who threatened him, said Tyler.
Investigators spoke with the man, Tyler said.
As of Wednesday morning, no suspects were at-large and no arrests were made, according to Tyler.
Man claims self-defense in Eleven North apartment shooting death
Nashville is going to save some money for White’s attempted murder trial. It appears he decided to meet the Judge/Jury/Executioner a bit early.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Metro Police are investigating a claim of self-defense in a deadly shooting that occurred in the parking lot of Eleven North Apartments on 300 11th Avenue North in North Gulch on Monday night.
According to investigators, 26-year-old Wontez Graham exchanged shots with the now-deceased victim, 23-year-old Timothy K. White. Investigators have recovered both of their pistols.
The shooting call came in around 8:50 p.m. White was found on the ground suffering from critical injuries after being shot. He was rushed to Vanderbilt University Medical Center where he died during surgery.
Graham was not on scene when investigators arrived but came back and spoke to investigators saying he had just parked his car at the apartment complex when a hooded man walked up and pulled out a gun.
Graham said he pulled his own gun from the door of his car and exchanged shots at the man whom he thought was going to steal his car. Graham and his girlfriend fled the scene to a nearby grocery store before they returned to the scene with Graham’s father. Both Graham and his girlfriend provided statements to police.
White, at the time of his death, was facing charges of two counts of attempted murder and was out on bond. He was charged with shooting into a car with two women inside in East Nashville back in 2017. One of the women suffered a gunshot wound to the upper back. White was to appear in court in September.
