Two intruders broke into the home of an ex-girlfriend in Salt Lake County, Utah, and began beating on the new boyfriend. The new boy friend armed himself with a knife, got all stabby, and put the pair in the hospital, one in serious condition.
An intruder in Norman, Oklahoma was shot by a resident of home into which the thief had forced himself. He was declared DOT (dead over there) at the hospital.
In Long Beach, California a resident shot an intruder. When the police arrived, the criminal was DRT (dead right there)

3 incidents, 4 miscreants. 1 shot dead where he dropped, 1 shot dead and died in the hospital and 2 others perforated, sliced and diced with a knife. No victims were harmed in the encounters.
here’s hoping the homeowner in Long Beach, PRC is not charged with some ridiculous offense for defending himself.
“got all stabby” nice turn of phrase, it made me giggle a little bit ^_^
