He picked the wrong house.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got a young couple in their 20s; daddy, momma and a young child at home when daddy hears a commotion in the front of the house,\u201d Sheriff Franklin reports. \u201cHe arms himself with a 9 mm handgun and goes to investigate. He sees Mr. Bowne standing in the living room and Mr. Bowne tells him \u2018Give me you (stuff).\u2019 Mr. Bowne then makes a move like he\u2019s going into his front pocket and the homeowner fires several times.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>0 \/ 1 \/ 0<br \/>\nGuess he got his (stuff).
