After realizing that his home had an intruder, a homeowner chased down a 19-year-old man and shot him to death on the Northwest Side early Saturday, according to a police report.No, he did not have a license for his pistol, because there is no such thing. He may have a CHL, but it is not a license to own a gun, and it is irrelevant in any case because this incident occurred (or started) in his own home.
Raymond Lemes, 48, said he was asleep when he heard a scream.
Lemes grabbed his gun and realized an intruder, later identified as Tracy Glass, was in his home in the 9800 block of Autumn Star.
Glass took off and Lemes chased him down the street. When he caught up to the suspect, Lemes said Glass took a swing at him so he shot the man.
When police arrived at 2:35 a.m., they found Glass facedown, dead with gunshot wounds to the chest, neck and arm.
The homeowner had a license for his .40 caliber Glock pistol, a police report said.
He told police Glass probably had gained access to his home through a sliding door that had been broken for some time.
The Express-News is worthless. And their comics pages suck, too.
