6. 6 Miles from here an 80 year old man was beaten during 3 breakins before he armed himself

and shot and killed one of his assailants during the 4th return of the same two thugs. I believe he wounded the second.

Yes, it does happen. Unfortunately I can not find an on line link to the story, it took place just a little over a year ago. The old man who did the shooting has since died but the small tavern he and his daughter have run for 50 years is still there. The place is called Pioneer Rocks, it is on the eastern outskirts of Morgantown, WV.
