You should be covered under
18-1-704 (A)
Deadly physical force may be used only if a person reasonably believes a lesser degree of force is
inadequate and:
(a.) The actor has reasonable ground to believe, and does believe, that he or another person is in
imminent danger of being killed or of receiving great bodily injury
OR more specifically 18-1-705 Physical use of Force in defense of a Premises
or when he reasonably believes it necessary to prevent what he reasonably believes to be an attempt by the trespasser to commit first degree arson
REMEMBER the key words are REASONABLY BELIEVE
