NC: Home invaders shot

A home in Rowan County was robbed twice in the same week. The first time they got the contents of the home owners' safe. The second time they got lead. The home owner left one wounded in the garage and exchanged fire with the other as the robber fled. No fatalities and the robbers are in custody. I'm a bit curious to know if the home owner was a gun owner before the first home invasion or if he saw the light during the interval. In any event the end result is as it should be.
