Pair of burglars force their way into home in middle of the day. But homeowner grabs his gun and shoots them both, sending duo running for help.

Once again we have a tale to share about crooks who perhaps figured they could pull off a crime with no danger to themselves — and once again we find that yet another "victim" took preventive measures by exercising the Second Amendment and getting armed.

And once again, things didn't go well for the crooks this time, either.
What happened?

Police in Lafayette, Louisiana, were dispatched to a burglary in progress at a residence in the 200 block of Wilkie Street around noon Wednesday — and it turns out the homeowner was present when two individuals forced their way inside, KATC-TV reported.

But the duo weren't dealing with a defenseless homeowner. Instead they ran smack into a guy who had armed himself with a gun, the station said.
