However, FBI data show only 4.4% of active shootings were thwarted by armed citizens during that time period.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>No Score<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/fbi-undercounts-number-times-armed-citizens-thwarted-active-shooting-incidents-report\">Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Police say semi-automatic gun, machete used in Northglenn burglary before teens shot<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Northglenn detectives said that two teen burglary suspects had a semi-automatic gun and a machete before they were shot and killed by the homeowner over the weekend after trespassing. Police believe the suspects were also responsible for burglarizing a nearby home on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>When LJ Perceval and her son came home Sunday, it was clear someone broke into their house. She immediately called 911 and was told it would be a while before officers responded, due to a &#8220;more serious&#8221; situation down the street.<\/p>\n<p>Perceval soon learned the crimes were connected and the burglary suspects were dead. <\/p>\n<p>Northglenn police connected her burglary to the juveniles shot and killed after trespassing around the corner.<\/p>\n<p>Northglenn police report the suspects broke a fence to gain entry into the backyard of a home in the 11600 block of Pearl Street. That&#8217;s where police say the suspects and the homeowner exchanged gunfire.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>2 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/colorado\/news\/semi-automatic-gun-machete-northglenn-burglary-teens-shot\/\">CBS News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Poor victim selection skills can be a cast iron bitch.
