Homeowner shoots intruders
SUMMARY: A man in South Jackson fought back against two home invaders, killing one and injuring the other. The incident occurred on Rosemary Avenue, off Cooper Road. The resident encountered the intruders and shot one multiple times, while the other managed to escape through a window. The deceased intruder was identified as 19-year-old Jonquez Porter, while the injured suspect, Romelo Porter, was found several houses down with a gunshot wound to the leg. The law in Mississippi allows residents to use deadly force to protect their personal space, home, and car from intruders. Romelo will face home invasion charges after recovering from his injuries.
