IL - Man Shoots & Kills Armed Would-Be Intruder

[Kevlar]

To hear his family tell it, Darryl Turner had more lives than a cat - surviving as many as 10 shootings in his 29 years.

Monday morning, the convicted felon's luck finally ran out.

Turner was armed with a gun and allegedly trying to force his way into an Englewood home when the homeowner shot him, witnesses say.

This time, he didn't even make it as far as an ambulance.

Crumpled in a puddle of blood at the bottom of a set of steps leading to the front door of the two-story home in the 5800 block of South Shields, the father-of-two's lifeless body was still lying where it fell more than three hours after the 8:30 a.m. shooting...

The medical examiner gave Turner’s address as a home in the 6700 block of South Parnell, but Smith and Turner’s family all said he had been living in Milwaukee to stay out of trouble and that he was only visiting Chicago when he was killed.

He was turning his life around...but a convicted felon in possession of a firearm nonetheless

“You could say he was blessed to have been shot 10 times before and lived each time,” Smith added, demanding justice for Turner.

Here we go again

No need to demand justice - He was served a full measure of justice

Sounds to me like he got the justice he deserved.

Justice for Turner == convict his confederates under "felony murder", give the homeowner a medal. In Chicago the likely outcome is the CPD arrests the homeowner for felon-in-possession and ensure the other residents of that house are left alone and disarmed to face the inevitable reprisals.

yea I laughed when they wanted justice for Turner..Holy Delusional Batman. Felon with a gun and shot ten times in his life. The people of CHicago got justice because they dont have to pay to house and feed this POS in prison

On another note I wonder if the state of Illinois is now the murder capital of the USA? seems to be an awful lot of deaths in the news(and not in the news)
