He didn&#8217;t care,&#8221; said a female resident, who did not wish to be identified. <\/p>\n<p>Police say a 20-year-old Hispanic man entered a home on Chopin Street on around 10 p.m. Tuesday without permission. The woman says she was inside the home when that man, carrying a gun, allegedly forced his way inside.<\/p>\n<p>This mother does not know the suspect&#8217;s name but he was her daughter&#8217;s ex-boyfriend.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He was seeing my daughter but he beat her &#8230; and she took off because he said he was going to kill her,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Through her tears, the woman said the suspect pointed a gun at her and told her if she didn&#8217;t call the daughter, he was going to kill her. But the man also allegedly pointed the gun at other family members.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He shot at my son-in-law from what I understand. He shot at him twice,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Police tell FOX 2 that their initial investigation shows the 39-year-old homeowner shot the man after he entered the home. At this point the homeowner is not in custody as police are investigating &#8212; this as a likely case of self defense.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>1 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\nThe rest of the article may be viewed here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fox2detroit.com\/news\/local-news\/ex-boyfriend-killed-after-forcing-way-into-home-in-search-of-ex-girlfriend\">Fox 2 Detroit<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Woman shoots at gunmen who tried to ambush, rob stepson in Warren<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>4 men arrested<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>By Shawn Ley &#8211; Reporter, Derick Hutchinson<br \/>\nWARREN, Mich. &#8211; When four people tried to ambush and rob a man in Warren, his stepmother fired a shot at the men. <\/p>\n<p>Four people have been arrested in connection with the robbery attempt that led to a police chase and a crash, officials said. <\/p>\n<p>A 17-year-old boy turned himself in Wednesday morning after police had arrested three other people, according to authorities. <\/p>\n<p>A man told police he was ambushed and nearly shot and killed by the suspects.
