Interesting. I hope we find out if they prosecute him or not. This will be the precedent in the case.
Under state law, Texans are allowed to defend themselves with deadly force to protect their own property. The person using deadly force must believe there is no other way to protect their belongings.
However, it is unclear whether that law extends to using deadly force to protect a neighbor's property
