Home Invader Shot and Killed

[SF-TX]

I suspect the outcome of this ill-fated home invasion is one of the reasons home invasions still remain relatively rare in Texas:

One dead in Milam County shooting

A Milam County man was shot and killed early Sunday morning in what the sheriff’s office said was a home invasion.

Authorities say Edward Sexton III, 34, had broken into a home and was shot and killed at about 2 a.m. Sunday.

Sexton was pronounced dead at the residence on County Road 218 in Cameron, a town in Milam County northeast of Austin, according to a release from Milam County Sheriff David Greene, which was read over the phone by a dispatcher for the sheriff’s office.

No arrests have been made. An autopsy has been ordered, and the incident is still under investigation.
