Crowbar-Wielding Home Intruder Comes Face-to-Face With Armed Resident

Posted at 11:19 am on May 31, 2016 by Jenn Jacques

In the early morning hours on Sunday in Taos, NM, a home intruder armed with a crowbar was forced to see the error of his ways when a resident shot him in the face in self defense.

Crowbar-wielding burglar? Meet the armed resident you thought you could victimize.

According to interim Police Chief Lt. Dave Maggio, Yvon Juteau, a man known to police from previous incidents, broke into a house on Juniper Street while the home’s residents were sleeping.

After Juteau approached the residents with a crowbar, one of the residents drew their gun in self defense, shooting “three times with a .38, hitting the suspect in the face,” Maggio said.

Police were able to track Juteau’s blood trail to a nearby field, where he resisted police and was tazed with a high voltage stun gun. Juteau was taken into custody and transferred to Holy Cross Hospital where he is in stable condition.

Pro tip: if you don’t want to be tased, bro – don’t resist arrest after breaking into someone’s home with a crowbar and being shot in the face.

Thankfully, someone in the home was armed with a gun when a bad guy with an ordinary tool, which could be used for good or evil, broke in and could have seriously hurt this family

Concealed carry permit holder Byron Wilson drew his handgun and engaged a mass shooter in Texas on Sunday, possibly saving lives at great risk to his own.An Army veteran* of multiple tours in Afghanistan [ The mass shooter was from California ] opened fire in Houston on Sunday, killing two people wounding and wounding six more before being killed by responding SWAT officers.

What many news outlets seem to be glossing over in their reporting of attack is that the veteran’s attack, carried out with an AR-15 variant, showed that the weapon was anything but “high-powered.” Six of the eight people shot with the most common rifle sold in the United States survived the attack.

One of those survivors, Byron Wilson, was a concealed carrier who drew his handgun and engaged the rifle armed shooter before being shot three times.

Pictures from the scene also show police patrol cars riddled with bullet holes.

He killed 56-year-old Eugene Linscomb and critically injured father Byron Wilson, who police say was trying to fight back and stop the deadly attack.

Authorities said Wilson had a concealed carry permit and fired at the suspect. He was shot three times in the process.

He is expected to survive
