A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
Homeowner was a Vietnam vet. From 9 news.
The armed homeowner who was shot and killed by an Aurora police officer was a 73-year-old Vietnam veteran, 9Wants to Know has learned.
A family member identified the man as Richard Black, an Army veteran. The family member spoke to 9NEWS but asked not to be identified
Sounds like the PD arrived while there was active shooting inside. It's a possibility that they entered immediately (as they should if they hear gunfire at a home invasion call) and surprised the homeowner before he had a chance to put the gun down.
My instructions to my family is to explicitly provide 911 with my detailed description and to specifically request they relay that info to responding officers. And to also explicitly state that I am armed so please don't shoot me.Not sure what else one could do to avoid this sort of accident/mistake.
The news just reported his wife called 911 and gave s detailed report of what he was wearing. Soundinf more and more fishy.
Yeah if it's not the resident making the phone call it's hard to get a description.
If neighbors were making phone calls they had to of heard shooting I imagine. And if there was still shooting when the police showed up later, however long that was, it must have been one heck of a gunfight... Too bad it was a short-lived win.
But I'm glad to hear the child survived.
Hero by any definition. Decorated war vet kills naked intruder who was trying to drown his grandkid. This is so fucked on so many levels.

I hope that the identity and deal behind what was going on with this intruder doesn't get lost in the rest of this mess.
"There are no finger prints under water."
Was he inside and the police outside and had just arrived? If she was still on line with 911, the police couldn't have been there long.
There is definitely some missing pieces to this story...
From the Denver post article.
The stepson was in the bathroom with the child and Black’s wife was outside talking to 911 operators when they heard additional shots, Rathod said. Black was standing in his living room when he was hit by gunfire, Rathod said.
