From\u00a0OCEANSIDE,\u00a0CA<\/a><\/p>\n

An Oceanside homeowner got a shock at work when his phone alerted him to intruders inside\u00a0his tented condo.<\/p>\n

James says around 5 in the morning\u00a0in late September, his heart dropped when the security alert showed him a real-time image: an intruder, wearing a headlamp\u00a0in his 11-year-old daughter’s bedroom.<\/p>\n

“Seeing a stranger in my house, especially my daughter’s room, is very nerve wracking,” said James.<\/p>\n

His daughter wasn’t home. No one was. His condo, along with the entire Pamilla Del Oro community\u00a0was wrapped in a fumigation tent.\u00a0That day was the last of a three-day fumigation.<\/p>\n

As it turns out, the burglars had sliced the tent and removed a screen\u00a0before making an appearance on James’ phone. He called 9-1-1. Police showed up soon after.<\/p>\n

“They set up a perimeter and called the guys out. One came crawling out,” said James.<\/p>\n

James showed 10News a photo of that man\u00a0handcuffed.\u00a0Two other intruders captured on by the cameras got away.\u00a0None of them wore masks.\u00a0They didn’t take much from the home, only a few fishing knives.<\/p>\n

“We took our valuables out before the fumigation,” said James. Police arrested James Brown, 47, on residential burglary charges.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From\u00a0PINEVILLE, NC<\/a><\/p>\n

Authorities believe a deadly shooting Tuesday in Pineville was in self-defense.<\/p>\n

A fight led to the shooting near Willow Run Road at the Willow Ridge Apartments off Park Road.<\/p>\n

“I heard shot\u00a0and I was nervous too because we can’t believe that happened,” resident Samantha Ciebadrel said.<\/p>\n

Donald Lee Blakney, 29, was shot and killed\u00a0during a break-in at an apartment, officers said.<\/p>\n

The occupant woke up went outside and confronted the suspect when they got into a scuffle and the occupant shot and killed Blakney.<\/p>\n

“I was walking into the living room from the bedroom, and I heard a muffled noise that I thought could have been a shot,” resident Dewain Cherry said.<\/p>\n

Cherry heard more shots fired.<\/p>\n

“There were two more shots that were extremely loud and scared me and I dialed 911,” Cherry said.<\/p>\n

Police said it appears to be a case of self-defense, even though Blakney was not armed. A firearms expert said that is state law.<\/p>\n

“If you’re attacked by someone, say he’s breaking in your house and he comes at you and attacks you, you’ve got a right to use deadly force right then,” said Larry Hyatt, with Hyatt Guns.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From\u00a0WORCESTER, MA<\/a><\/p>\n

A city man who was shot by a store clerk during an attempted robbery in May at a Vernon Street grocery store was ordered held without bail Wednesday pending a dangerousness hearing next week.<\/p>\n

Police and prosecutors said a masked man, later identified as Juan L. Ahorrio, entered\u00a0No Name Grocery II at 49 Vernon St. on the night of May 26 carrying a large black knife.\u00a0Mr. Ahorrio allegedly went behind one of two customers in the store, put the knife to her neck and demanded that the clerk, identified in court records as Byron Lara, give him all the money from the register.<\/p>\n

Mr. Lara, who was licensed to carry a firearm, then pulled out his handgun, according to investigators. When the customer fainted and fell to the floor, Mr. Ahorrio allegedly lunged at Mr. Lara with the knife.<\/p>\n

The clerk fired three rounds at Mr. Ahorrio, police said. Mr. Ahorrio dropped the knife and ran out of the store, according to authorities. Mr. Lara chased after him, ordered him to the ground and returned to the store to check on the customers, police said.<\/p>\n

When officers arrived minutes later, paramedics from Worcester EMS were treating Mr. Ahorrio for three gunshot wounds, investigators said. The paramedics said they had been driving by when they saw Mr. Ahorrio on the sidewalk. He was taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries that were not life-threatening, according to authorities.<\/p>\n

The female customer had some minor scratches to her neck from the blade of the knife, but did not require medical attention, according to court records.<\/p>\n

Initially charged in Central District Court, Mr. Ahorrio was indicted Aug. 23 by a Worcester County grand jury on charges of armed assault with intent to rob, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and assault with a dangerous weapon. The indictments moved Mr. Ahorrio\u2019s case to Worcester Superior Court, where he was arraigned anew Wednesday and entered not-guilty pleas.<\/p>\n

Assistant District Attorney Lisa Casella filed a motion for a dangerousness hearing for Mr. Ahorrio and Judge Janet Kenton-Walker scheduled the hearing for Tuesday at the request of the prosecutor and Mr. Ahorrio\u2019s lawyer, John J. Roemer. Ms. Casella is expected to argue Tuesday that Mr. Ahorrio poses a danger to the public and should be held without bail for up to 120 days while awaiting trial.<\/p>\n

Mr. Ahorrio is also facing a violation of his probation from a 2011 Worcester Superior Court case in which he pleaded guilty to armed robbery, assault with a dangerous weapon and assault and battery and was sentenced to 3 to 5 years in state prison with 5 years of probation to follow. The alleged violation, which is also scheduled to be heard Tuesday, is based in part on the pending charges, according to court records.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
