A breaking story is emerging with new details of three feral thugs who attempted to kill a Houston man in his front yard in a deadly drive-by shooting.
As the three thugs drove by the victim’s residence, 40 gunshots rang out from their vehicle aimed at a single target, but this Texas homeowner had other plans that no one could have expected.
According to Click2Houston, the deadly incident took place at approximately 3:30 am on Glenburnie Drive in a Houston suburb on Saturday, May 6. The three assailants drove by the victim’s home, who is not yet being identified by police, and opened fire in an attempt to kill him.
Surprisingly, the victim was unharmed, and what is even more shocking is what the homeowner did as he was being shot at. The homeowner returned fire with an AR-15 rifle, hitting all three of the thugs as they shot at him.
According to the Houston Police Department, two of the suspects died on the scene and the third was taken to nearby Ben Taub Hospital, where he underwent surgery. The Harris County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the two deceased men are 19-year-old Gerain Harris and 20-year-old Derrion McCowan Jr. The identity of the of the suspect who survived the shooting has not yet been released by Houston PD.
The suspect’s dark red-colored Nissan Altima can be seen in the footage from the report by the local news source. The would-be victim’s brother, who was reportedly interviewed by a news anchor, said that his brother routinely visited a local shooting range and owned an AR-15 rifle, which family members say he used to defend himself in this deadly drive-by.
According to police, the homeowner will most likely not be charged for killing the two thugs and injuring the third, who opened fire on him, because he was acting in self-defense.
