Woman Shoots 2 In Home Invasion

Deputy Constables: Teen Claimed They Were 'Victims'

Investigators said the woman opened fire when the attackers burst through her bedroom door.
"She's in her bedroom, locked in her bedroom. And she could hear them rustling through the rooms about the house. She grabbed her weapon and you know, held up inside her bedroom. It wasn't until they forced their way into her bedroom, they kicked the bedroom door in. She fired several shots at the suspects," said Lt. Jeff Stauber with the Harris County Sheriff's Department.
Investigators said Gerson Jonathon Linares and Shalom Mendoza, both 17, were wounded.
Detectives said the teenagers, who live in the neighborhood, ran out of the home and called for help, claiming to be the victims of a shooting.

1. The two "victims" learned a valuable lesson. Some people don't take that shit. n/t

[SlipperySlope]

2. Play stupid games...

...win stupid prizes.

3. Another example of a strong woman.

Just in case someone missed this and wants to look for an update.

16. Give that woman a 12 guage. LOL

[spin]

4. There are plenty of cities where you can bust in someones home...

and not have to worry about facing an armed homeowner.

Maybe the two teenagers should consider moving to one of them.

Chicago comes to mind.

25. No thanks, we're over our quota now! Ntxt

5. Those punks almost became victims of Darwin.

They should count themselves lucky and attempt to turn their lives around.

7. I guess it depends on where you get hit and

with what, but a body part that hurts to move it for a few years would serve as an excellent reminder.

6. Guns and women go well together.

1 woman prevails against 2 men. I love a story with a happy ending.

Seriously though. I'm sure it scared her to death, like being in a nightmare. I hope she comes through it ok.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

8. She certainly proved herself to be a strong woman.

[iverglas]

10. yeah

Just ask Oleg.

They are plainly the stuff many really juicy fantasies are made of.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

11. I seriously doubt this was ever a fantasy for this woman.

[iverglas]

12. And I seriously doubt

you ever thought I said it was.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

13. How about we vote on what you meant?

I believe that was close to your response when you made a similarly outrageous claim about something I wrote.

[Tim01]

15. You like his work?

It isn't my style. Surprising since I know one of his models. She is the definition of strong. I talk to her when I need to be put on the right path. She is quite impressive.

19. What do you think the woman in the story should have done?

Do you think there is a better way the situation could have played out?

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

22. I'm shocked she never answered and complained about injuring teenagers.

[gorfle]

9. What a yahoo!

What a yahoo with a false sense of courage! Why didn't she just call and wait for the police? Surely she knew her attackers and should have known she could never shoot them. And besides, who knows what they were up to? If it was just a little beating or sexual assault that's not worth someone's life, right? Clearly she couldn't know her life was in any danger, so clearly this situation did not warrant the use of a gun!

Can you guess who I am?

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

14. Kicked just because some people here have the wrong opinion about women.

[Tim01]

17. I have a female friend I train with on ocasion.

She really is as beautiful as a model. Blond hair and blue eyes. Her model photos, and her doing olympic weight lifting are both on the web. She is a combat fitness instructor. She trains in boxing, knife,stick and gun. I might be just a bit better than her with a gun, just a bit. She can destroy me in every other area. Except when it goes to the ground. Even with all her training when it comes to just brute strength she doesn't do so well against an average guy.
I don't think any guy will ever get close enough to her to use that advantage.
A group of guys in a dark parking lot have found that out.
She is not to be trifled with. I'm glad she is on my side.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

18. Sounds like an interesting and strong woman.

[Tejas]

20. I googled a streetview

Two 17yr olds, 6am on a Sunday morn, what the ?

Googled "Cades Cove Drive Spring, Tx" and looked at the available views, this occured in a very nice neighborhood.

[Tim01]

21. This business of being holed up in the bedroom while the badguys smash in is too common.

I was in a similar situation once and it scared the crap out of me, and it turned out to be a false alarm. I can't imagine how terrified this woman was.

[Tim01]

23. This is what happens to home invaders when women have guns.

I wonder if this would have been one of those rape/execution stories if she hadn't had the gun?

[SteveM]

24. Thugs claimed they were "victims of a shooting?" And the point? (nt)

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

26. Who knows?
