There were two men pounding on the front door, but he didn&#8217;t answer. They then went around to the back of the house.<\/p>\n<p>Patmon said his son called him when the trouble started<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He called me and told me about it,&#8221; the homeowner said. &#8220;Not long after that, two unknown suspects entered our home without permission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The men allegedly forced their way inside, meeting the teen head-on.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My son, trying to defend his home and himself, he discharged my firearm, striking one of the suspects,&#8221; Patmon said.<\/p>\n<p>The shot suspect died inside the home. The second suspect fled the scene.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is our home, and he&#8217;s my son,&#8221; Patmon said. &#8220;If I&#8217;m not there to protect him, we try to teach our children to do what&#8217;s right, and I just thank God that he&#8217;s OK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s unfortunate that a life was taken, but at the same time, it&#8217;s very fortunate that this guy had a way to defend himself,&#8221; Warren said. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><object id=\"otvPlayer\" width=\"500\" height=\"268\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com\/static\/flash\/embeddedPlayer\/swf\/otvEmLoader.swf?version=fw1000&#038;station=ktrk&#038;section=&#038;mediaId=9275045&#038;parentId=9274876&#038;cdnRoot=http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com&#038;webRoot=http:\/\/abclocal.go.com&#038;configPath=\/util\/&#038;site=\" ><\/param><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><param name=\"allowNetworking\" value=\"all\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed id=\"otvPlayer\" width=\"500\" height=\"268\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"\tallowscriptaccess=\"always\" allownetworking=\"all\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"\tsrc=\"http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com\/static\/flash\/embeddedPlayer\/swf\/otvEmLoader.swf?version=fw1000&#038;station=ktrk&#038;section=&#038;mediaId=9275045&#038;parentId=9274876&#038;cdnRoot=http:\/\/cdn.abclocal.go.com&#038;webRoot=http:\/\/abclocal.go.com&#038;configPath=\/util\/&#038;site=\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UpNorth &#038; Chief Tango sent us a link to today&#8217;s feel good story from Houston about &hellip; <a title=\"Sunday Feel Good Story\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=37855\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Sunday Feel Good Story<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[218],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feel-good-stories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=37855"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37855\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=37855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=37855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=37855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
