A Georgia homeowner shot and killed three teens as they approached his residence with their faces covered, authorities said.
The masked teens -- a 15-year-old and two 16-year-olds -- approached three residents around 4 a.m. Monday at the front yard of a home just outside Conyers and tried to rob them, the Rockdale County Sheriff's Office said.
One of the would-be robbers took out a gun and fired shots at them before one of the residents returned fire, authorities said.
"The victims of the attempted robbery were all uninjured, but the three attempted robbery suspects were all shot during the exchange of gunfire and succumbed to their injuries, one on scene and two at a local hospital after being transported," the sheriff's department said in a news release.

Three teens?? Please. Can they for once give the real ages of the blacks?? You can bet they aren't 13,14,or15!!!
Good for him...
It is as it should be....
Yahoo hooray !!!
Way to go, fellow. What else was he supposed to do? He did exactly what he should have done and if that was done more often, there would be less of those thugs doing those things.

I guess you only read the headline. Had you read to the second paragraph you wouldn't have made such a stupid comment.
This is one of several reasons why law abiding citizens are constitutionally allowed to have guns.
Maryland needs to allow concealed carry for law abiding citizens.
They were planning going to college
Robbers got more than they bargained for; too bad, so sad.
But who is out in the front yard at 4 a.m.? Said there were others beside the homeowner present. Really, really early school bus stop?
That guy should train others on how to shoot properly.
I love a happy ending.
He was just dying to add that black piece in there!
Who in the hell is out in their yard that early? Sounds like something is not quite right about that story. Could it be the home owner knew they were coming?
Glad the home owner had his weapon and defended himself and his property it went as it should have. Deplorable young thugs maybe others in this town will think twice before they try robbery. The best defense is yourself.
Northwest Woodsman: There is always more to the story but in this case I enjoyed the happy ending.
Really doesn't matter why the homeowners were out in their yard at 4:00am. It's their property and they can do what they want on it. Not against the law to be outside that early.
Based on the article, the owners should not be charged with anything. They were fired upon first and returned fire. Pretty easy to believe they were in fear for their life at that point.
@September 17, 2019 at 8:18 PM. Did you stop and think that maybe they were going to go to work?
@ September 18, 2019 at 9:18 AM. What's not quite right is that garbage preying on good hard working people. Did it cross your mind that they may have been getting ready to go to work? Uh, DUHHHH.
Way to thin the herd. Now the welfare checks stop coming. Momma gonna be real mad.
From what I read from another source it said the neighbors were at the one guys house. No idea why. It sounded like maybe it was just some guys hanging out and these kids thought they would be easy prey.
