Ten year old shoots house breaking thug

That's got to be a royal bitch. Expecting easy pickings when you kick in the door of an apartment with two children alone inside and getting shot in the lip by the ten year old. The ten year old boy took his eight year old sister to his mother's bedroom when the thugs began kicking in the apartment door. The boy collected his mother's gun and when the thugs opened the bedroom door opened fire. The thugs fled and were later arrested at a local hospital.

This incident had the proper ending: scumbags shot and in jail, kids safe. But the kids should not have been left alone in the apartment. Unsecured gun aside, the risk was too great.

But the ten year old did good.
