Armed Veteran Homeowner Gets Into Wild Shootout with Burglars on His Front Lawn (VIDEO)

Burglars realized they chose the wrong home when they were confronted by an armed homeowner who just happened to be a U.S. veteran.

This from thegatewaypundit.com.

Clayton County, Georgia—A man told Fox 5 Atlanta that he wanted to protect his wife and home after he saw three burglars on his front lawn on his Ring camera.

Smith said:

My first thought was to protect my house and protect my property. I just wanted to get the intruders away.

As I keep looking at the Ring camera I noticed a young man running from the neighbor’s yard across my yard and into the street to meet up with two other gentlemen.

Smith added:

He sprints up my driveway. I can see from the camera he’s hunched down wearing a grey hoodie, and he has a firearm in his hand.

He tries to get into the BMW in the driveway. The door’s locked.

Smith:

Smith is seen on the surveillance video exchanging gunfire with the burglars.

He used his BMW as a shield as the burglars fired at him.

Smith told Fox 5 Atlanta:

I don’t want to die at home. I survived Afghanistan and everywhere else.

To die at home? In my own yard.

The three suspects are still at large, and Clayton County police are urging anyone with information to call authorities.

This is Burglary Confrontation 101—Georgia style.

Call the police?

Sure. In good time. But first, let’s get after those burglars.
