Washington man fatally shoots suspected home burglar: \u2018I have the right to protect myself’<\/strong>
\nResidents in the area said the neighborhood has seen an increase in crime<\/em><\/p>\n

By Louis Casiano
\nA Washington state man shot and killed a suspected burglar and opened fire on another inside his home early Thursday, saying “I have a right to defend myself.”<\/p>\n

Jerahme Smith, 31, told Fox affiliate KCPQ-TV in Seattle that he was in his Spanaway home with his sister when two men kicked in a back door. One of them had a weapon, prompting Smith to open fire in self-defense, he said.<\/p>\n

“When everything first started, the first thing I had to do was take a few breaths and calm myself down because I knew it could have gone one of two ways,” he told the news outlet. “I didn\u2019t know who they were, I didn\u2019t know what they had, but the first thing I did–and it\u2019s the honest to God truth–is I took a few breaths to myself. That way I knew I was calm enough to make a proper judgment decision.”<\/p>\n

The Pierce County Sheriff’s Department said they received a call about a home invasion just before 4:30 a.m. from a homeowner who said he shot at intruders. When deputies arrived, they found an unresponsive suspect, identified as a 24-year-old man.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Deputies pursue man accused of firing 72 times along Brandon Boulevard<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nA man who opened fire on Brandon Boulevard Thursday discharged two weapons 72 times before he surrendered to deputies, Hillsborough Sheriff Chad Chronister said Friday.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s nearly five times more than the 15 shots Chronister estimated a day earlier after the arrest of Daniel Lighty, 35, of Brandon.<\/p>\n

The incident started about 12:45 p.m. Thursday when Lighty pulled into the Washed Up Brandon Carwash, 834 E Brandon Blvd., and began recording a Facebook Live video, Chronister said Thursday. When asked to leave by an employee, Lighty refused, and deputies were called to the scene.<\/p>\n

Lighty fired at the first of three deputies to arrive on the scene, Chronister said, barely missing her. Lighty kept shooting, six dozen times, and using at least two guns, the sheriff said. One deputy returned fire but did not strike Lighty.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe fired his firearms 72 times,\u201d Chronister said. \u201cThat\u2019s 72 opportunities to kill or seriously injure someone in our community or the responding deputies.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Have fun with this one. Thanks, Gun Bunny.<\/p>\n

To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. — General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
