LAFOLLETTE (WATE) -- An attempted home invasion in LaFollette landed a would-be robber in the hospital with a gunshot to the chest.

LaFollette police say the two men who are suspects, Paul Lee Bourff and Robert Wayne Evans, forced their way into a home on Hemlock Street Tuesday evening.

The pair was armed.

The homeowner, Charles Green, grabbed his own gun and shot Bourff.

Both suspects ran to a neighbor's house. Someone there drove Bourff to a nearby hospital. He was then flown to UT Medical Center.

Evans waited at the neighbor's home until police arrived.


shame he didnt get both of them and they both kill over, next time need bigger gun.

i would have pull out a shotgun double shot. fill with rock salt! get in the eyes they both be blind for life and maybe they lrean stay out of other people homes.

sick freaks they got what they ask for

i bet the homeowner will get sued somehow

probably, that why it best to shoot to kill so there only be 1 side to story and they cant sue.

whats the law in the UK now, u can do anything 2 protect ur house, as long as its inside ur property or sumthin..

Oh boy! Someone's insurance premiums are going to go up ...
