Homeowner Shoots Suspect After 2 Break-Ins The second video below is worth watching - "That's all I got to say about that." Heard this on the tv a few minutes ago and went out to the net to find it. POSTED: 5:16 pm CDT April 3, 2008 UPDATED: 6:01 pm CDT April 3, 2008 HOUSTON -- A southeast Houston homeowner shot a burglary suspect Thursday afternoon after he was victimized twice in a week, officials told KPRC Local 2. Thomas Williamson lives in the 6000 block of Bois D'arc. He said he stayed home from work on Thursday after a burglar hit his home twice in a few days. Williamson said he looked out his window at about 1 p.m. and saw a man walk across his back yard. The man went into Williamson's garage and tried to steal an air compressor, worth about $400, he said. When the burglary suspect walked out of the garage with bolt cutters, Williamson said he grabbed his shotgun. "He came to the door and I went, 'Get on the ground. Get on the ground.' He got on the ground and I told him, 'Do not move,'" he said. "I was shaking. I had him on the ground with my shotgun and I told him, 'Do not move.' I was even yelling. I fired one shot in the ground just to show him I meant business," Williamson said. Williamson said he shot the man when he tried to run. The burglary suspect was taken to Ben Taub Hospital with a gunshot wound. His condition was not released. The District Attorney's Office said charges would probably not be filed because Williamson was protecting his property. click2houston.com khou.com
