Two men suspected of attempting to invade a home in North Carolina Friday died after a gunfight with the homeowner.
Fayetteville Police tell WTVD both robbery suspects fled the home after the exchange of gunfire. One of the suspects, 25-year-old Dominik Council, was found dead on the side of the road nearly two hours after the incident.
The other suspect, 20-year-old Xavier White, was found wounded and transported to an area hospital, where he later died, according to the station.
Police said the homeowner, who was not identified, was injured during the gunfight. Details on the individual’s condition were not immediately available.
Police on Saturday identified 24-year-old Lamyer Campbell and 24-year-old Derek Hair as suspects in the attempted home invasion.
Pity every Home Invasion story doesn’t end like this. Pity every Home Invasion story with two dead criminals doesn’t get the same press as any (School, Mall, Theater, Street…) shooting where there is an equivalent body count at the hands of a mentally ill gunman. I don’t wish for anyone to die violently but there is a difference between armed criminals who have chosen the path to their own death and innocent and unarmed citizens who did not.
And that’s what I despise about the liberal press and the Democrats in Congress. They act like there is no difference.
We had this happen in Tulsa twice in the past few months – in fact I think it happened twice in the same week. Your graphic is spot-on.

The irony is that in the view of those who compile gun violence statistics, a shooting is a shooting is a shooting. Out of all the gunshot “victims” reported thus each year we should subtract; bad boys like this who got themselves shoot by a citizen while committing a crime, those shot by the police (I have my doubts about some of those shootings but let it go), suicides by gun. Then sort the remainder between accidental discharges, citizens shot by criminals and murders committed by the mentally ill. Did I forget anyone?
What’s left will be less than death by knife, or by bludgeoning.
