Who wouldn’t momentarily hesitate if they hear someone shouting, “POLICE!” as their door gets kicked in? Bad guys in Harris County, Texas tried that ruse. It didn’t work out so well for them.
Sheriff Ed Gonzalez held a press conference the next day about the pair of pretend cops who forced entry on a home in Katy, Texas – west of Houston.
The intruders, dressed in what looked like “body armor” stormed the residence while firing shots. It seems their marksmanship could have used some improvement, though, along with their muzzle discipline. Darwin interceded when one thug plugged the other, causing him to drop his gun and run towards the home’s exit.
Hold on, though…it gets better.
A lot better.
Captain Overwatch, who moments before shot his own partner, then ran into his own difficulties.
See the occupants of the home, a woman and her two adult male children, saw their opportunity after the guy who got shot dropped his gun as he fled the house. One son grabbed the loose gun (can you say “combat pickup?”) and fired shots at the the other one.
One of the rounds found its mark, killing him deader than disco.
Pardon me while I get a Kleenex and wipe the tears away. Yes, I celebrate when bad guys run into hazards of the criminal profession and good guys win. If you want to cheer for the bad guys and against the cops, there’s better websites for you.
ABC13 puts it all together . . .
A home invasion suspect was shot and killed inside a Katy home overnight, and deputies believe he accidently (sic) shot his own accomplice before his death.
Just before 11:30 p.m. Thursday, deputies with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office responded to a home invasion in the 3200 block of Windmoor Drive.
There were three people inside the home at the time — a mother and her two adult sons.
Cops are still looking for the wounded perp and the getaway driver. Given that the gunshot wound will need treatment, it’s probably just a matter of time until the aspiring brain surgeon meets up with Sheriff Gonzalez’s men. And maybe the getaway driver, too.
Instant “karma” for mentally deficient criminals.
