Father beats man for attempting to snatch baby

[Ceicei]

Here is yet another defense (of family) story. A snippet from the article.

The intruder broke through a bedroom window at about 4 a.m., likely looking for the baby inside, said Taylorsville police Sgt. Rosie Rivera. Authorities say the man, an ex-boyfriend of the tenant, believed the child was his - a claim the mother denies.
The break-in was foiled by the baby's angry father, who clubbed the man with a baseball bat as he escaped through a window, then chased him into the parking lot and hit him some more.

The intruder is yet another poster child for planned parenthood.

I agree with the neighbor - "If you're invading a home, you better know what you might get into".

Next time he needs to get a bigger bat.

A friend of mine from a local PD was called to a house where a woman found a man sleeping naked on her couch. When they woke him up he was still drunk and convinced he had broken his ex-girlfriends house and it was ok because he use to live there, his ex-girlfriend live 2 blocks away. They never found out why he was naked, nor could they find his cloths

Attacker should count his blessings that he did not break into my house looking to steal my child. There are worse things than death and if he tried that with me he would experience several of them.

In our screwed up society, some scum bag will try to sue the father.

Be sure to add Lawyer to that "scum-bag" adjective.

A hearty GOOD JOB! goes for the father defending his home and family.

Let's put it this way:
There wouldn't be enough left of the intruder for anyone to identify

I wouldn't be surprised. I can hear it now: "Well, just because he broke into this guys house, the home owner didn't have to keep beating him!"

In any case, its good to see that people are fighting back, to protect whats theirs.

Like I said in a previous post, DAs these days tend to prosecute those that defend themselves by claiming excessive force was used. I can just hear it now, "..ladies and gentlemen of the jury, after severely beating the intruder, did the defendant REALLY have to chase him down the block? Couldn't he have just stopped at the end of his driveway??...

Sheessh!

He could have stopped, but there was no mention of firearms...

If I were the man's attorney I would've said: "Objection your honor, the scumbag was attempting to steal the baby of my client! Surely this calls for a severe beating til all emotional trauma has fled the REAL father of the child..."

 

[matt.m]

I am telling you, the intruder would beg me to die. I am sorry but that kind of behavior is purely inexcusable.

How true..

A hearty GOOD JOB! goes for the father defending his home and family

Good job to that Dad for protecting his child!

 

[Touch Of Death]

I am interested in seeing a blood test before deciding whom the father is. Either way its a tragic case.

Thanks to whoever left the nice negative for me. I am glad to see that someone thinks me foolish for my statement. When it is your child on the line see what you do.

Oh yeah, I'd torture a man to death after he was no longer a threat. That's a sane response.

I agree with Touch Of Death that it will be interesting to see whose story is correct in the long run. These things usually end up being more complicated than they seemed at first. But, it certainly sounds like a happy ending to me!
