American shoots burglar dead
posted on: Sep 9 2010 9:53 by Royston. Viewed 2185 times.
An intruder was shot and killed by an American pensioner when he found the robber in his home.
The sixty year old American, Anthony Yera, discovered three men inside his home in Las Marias, Gaspar Hernandez. The robbers apparently stabbed him but he managed to get his revolver and shoot one of them.
The victim was identified only as Francis (aka El Martillito).
According to the Police report, there were another two men with El Martillito, one of whom is known as Gacho, and both men are now being sought by police.
The police recovered a gun, two knives 26 inches long and various tools from the scene of the crime and the local Police Commander, Cristbal Mejia Morales, confirmed there is a police search underway for the two fugitives.
