Home Invasion Results in Death

abc13.com: College student fatally shot while trying to kick in door, police say So another goblin picks the wrong house to burglarize (or whatever).

Police say the homeowner, Robert Delk, told police that he and his wife were woken up early Saturday morning by someone banging on their door.

As Delk, who had grabbed his .44 magnum handgun, approached the door, the suspect kicked it in.

A police spokesman tells the Tyler Morning Telegraph that Delk then shot the suspect.

Justin Herrera died at the hospital. Motive for the break-in is unknown.

And the homeowner?

Tyler police Lieutenant David Long says the case is under investigation and would be presented to the grand jury.

But he didn't believe any charges are anticipated.

He was defending himself, after all.
