http://www.thearmedcitizen.com/2010/06/30/texas-teen-shoots-would-be-burglary-suspect/Two would-be burglars are in police custody thanks to the quick actions of a 15-year-old.
From upstairs, the 15-year-old — who was home with his 12-year-old sister — heard the breaking glass and grabbed his father’s automatic (I'm assuming it is really a semi-auto)rifle. The burglary was soon over.
There were some questions about whether he’d (the father) be liable for the shooting since his son had easy access to the weapon, but ABC13’s legal expert says that the 15-year-old’s right to protect his home and sister trumps all child firearm access laws.
