Two homeowners were forced to defend themselves after retreating to a bathroom after a man with a knife broke into their home screaming, You’ll have to kill me.”
Early this past July 4th, around 1 AM, a Safford, AZ man broke into his neighbor’s home wielding a knife. The two homeowners fled into a bedroom and then a bathroom. As the suspect chased them, he reportedly yelled, “You’ll have to fill me.” One of the homeowners was able to retrieve a handgun and shoot the suspect in self-defense.
The police pronounced the suspect dead on the scene. As they tried to contact a next of kin of the deceased suspect, they entered his home next door and found another victim deceased in a bedroom.
Luckily, the homeowners were able to arm themselves and stop the threat. It seems that this man had already killed someone, so who knows what he had planned for the neighbors. While having a home defense gun is important, making sure you have quick access to it is even more important. You never know when crazy is going to bust through your door.
The way you store guns in your home can depend on a lot of things. Do you have children or people you don’t want accessing the guns? Do you only have one home defense gun? Sal goes into this in the article below.
