Suspected Intruder Shot And Killed

DeKalb County police are investigating the deadly shooting, of a man who may have broken into home.

The shooter's roommate, says the intruder wasn't wearing shoes when he came into their house. Paul Meoaur told Channel 2 Action News that the man had a kitchen knife, that was about six inches long. He says tried to bust through his friend's locked bedroom door. He told police the man didn't stop, when his roommate warned him that if he didn't leave, he would shoot. Moments later the roommate did just that.

The suspect died of his injuries at the hospital.

Meoaur doesn't know what the man's motive may have been. He does believe he got into their home through an unlocked side door.
