The Tallahassee Democrat identifies juveniles when they are charged with serious crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Court records indicate that two other men, who have not been charged, also were involved in the home invasion.<\/p>\n<p>TPD Spokesman Damon Miller could not comment on whether more arrests were expected, despite a second person being hospitalized with gunshot wounds likely from the home invasion.<\/p>\n<p>The homeowner saw the armed suspects in the kitchen, retrieved a rifle and fired 25 shots at Meeks and Tillman. They returned fire and fled in a stolen car. They left behind clothing, jewelry and a stolen gun.<\/p>\n<p>A blood trail was noted leaving the house.<\/p>\n<p>About an hour later, TPD responded to a report of someone suffering gunshot wounds on south Adams Street, who turned out to be Meeks. Police said when they questioned him at the hospital he lied, saying he was shot by an unknown assailants as he walked down the street.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>0 \/ 3 \/ 2<br \/>\nTough one to score, read the article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tallahassee.com\/story\/news\/2019\/05\/17\/two-arrested-burglary-shooting-wabash-trail\/3704827002\/\">Tallahassee Democrat<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Man shoots burglary suspect: First tried to fend him off with a stick<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>by Q13 News Staff and Ali Bradley<br \/>\nTHURSTON CO., Wash &#8212; A man in Thurston County is forced to defend himself when an homeless intruder broke into his home Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Police say the suspect trespassed onto the property and refused to leave after being told by the homeowner.

Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. \u2014 James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/redhead-with-ar-e1558196963960.jpg\" alt=\"red with knife and ar\" \/><br \/>\nBe polite, gents.
