We love when homeowners save money for the tax payers.
Here's a great example of that sort of thing happening, courtesy of The Advocate:
A 32-year-old Covington man was shot and killed while he was attempting to rob a home in Prairieville early Saturday, the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office said. A man and a woman who allegedly accompanied him during the robbery have been arrested.
Deputies say Ramone Cruz, 24-year-old Belle Bamber and 31-year-old Brandon Tibbetts attempted to rob an acquaintance they knew at a home on JT Roddy Road shortly after midnight, an APSO spokesperson said. The trio kicked in the door of the home and gunfire was exchanged; Cruz was struck several times in the chest.
Bamber took Cruz in a private vehicle to a nearby hospital for treatment. He later died at the hospital.
Bamber is currently in the Ascension Parish Jail after being arrested and charged on counts of aggravated burglary and second-degree murder. A bail amount has not been set for her.
Tibbetts initially fled the scene of the shooting before police arrived, but he was later found and arrested in Slidell.
