Markus Kaarma fired several shots from a shotgun into his darkened garage, allegedly without warning, in Missoula, Montana, early on Sunday, killing the teenager from Hamburg. It is unclear what Diren was doing in the garage.
Mr Kaarma, a 29-year-old firefighter, told police that he fired after he had seen a male in his garage through video camera he was monitoring, claiming his home had twice been hit by burglars.
According to a BBC report, it is alleged that on the night of the killing Mr Kaarma had deliberately left the garage door open and placed his partners purse in there to bait intruders. The couple then stayed up monitoring motion sensors and a video feed.

(712 posts)I was referring to the article the way it was written.
It should have said he went in to steal the purse not it was unclear why he had entered the garage in the middle of the night.....

(1,858 posts)The shooter did set a trap to murder a thief that posed no apparent threat to his life. I expect he will pay for it.
