Police say 16-year-old killed in self-defense during attempted armed robbery

Police say an armed robbery left a 16-year-old dead on Indy’s far east side near Cumberland. Investigators believe the shooter acted in self-defense. The homeowner’s daughter and her boyfriend claim they were sitting in their car when at least two suspects yanked open the car door and tried to rob them at gunpoint.

More than your right. It's your duty to take motherfuckers out who break into your home to do you and your family harm. You're a POS if you don't even try when you have a chance to do so.
