TOLEDO, Wash. — A homeowner shot and killed a stranger he caught coming up the stairs inside his residence in Toledo.

The Lewis County sheriff’s office says the 62-year-old resident was awakened about 10:40 p.m. Tuesday by the sound of someone breaking into his home.

When the intruder refused two commands to “freeze,” the homeowner fired once. The suspect died at the scene.

"Get off my lawn!"

Now that's the kind of gun control I support.

Nice shot.

With one gentle squeeze of the trigger, the world is suddenly a better place. Well, at least it's minus one dirtbag anyway.

+10 for the homeowner.

One less dirt bag to worry about.

He is hoarding ammo. Only shot once?

To quote the infamous video, "BOOM-headshot!" Seriously though, I hope the homeowner is doing OK and the clean up goes well.

Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting twice IMO.
