A mother from Texas is being hailed for her incredible bravery when she chose to gun down an intruder who broke into her home.
According to reports from local media outlets, the mother reportedly claims that she heard the suspect break inside and that’s when she knew that she had to do something.
Therefore, the mom decided to gun him down, leaving him with critical injuries. But while he was being transported to the hospital, he is believed to have succumbed to his injuries.
Authorities revealed how there were three of her children inside, fast asleep when the intruder broke in and that’s why the mother felt it was important for her to take these important measures as her and her kids’ lives were at stake.
The incident is believed to have taken place on Thursday during the 10 pm hours.
Authorities are yet to identify the mother but they believe she shot the suspect twice using a gun, with bullets being aimed directly at his chest.
The suspect is believed to have entered the home through the laundry room which is present adjacent to a nearby public park.
Sources claim the cops have recently identified the deceased intruder as 41-year-old Roman Rodriguez who passed away en route to the hospital.
As of now, no charges have been reported against the mom because, under the state of Texas’s doctrine, she was acting in self-defense, which allows the use of force against anyone that tries to entire into your property.
Images from the site of the incident have now been released by the police. They clearly reveal how the fence located around the home for protection was also broken down by the suspect who tried to enter forcefully.
