(09-05) 09:56 PDT SAN MATEO -- A victim of a home-invasion robbery in San Mateo opened fire on his assailants, killing a suspect and injuring another, police said Thursday.
The shooting happened at a home on the 1500 block of Lodi Avenue about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday.
The resident of the home, a 24-year-old man, was found at the scene suffering from a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.
Investigators determined that the man and three other people were home when three assailants accosted them during a home-invasion robbery, said San Mateo Deputy Police Chief Mike Callagy.
Then, early Thursday, all three suspects showed up at Regional Medical Center in San Jose with gunshot wounds. One died at the hospital, and another was being treated for a non-life-threatening wound, police said.
The surviving suspects face arrest, Callagy said. The names of the victims and suspects weren't immediately released.
The motive was not immediately known, but the home invasion did not appear to be random, authorities said.
"The suspects specifically targeted this house for reasons that are not entirely clear at this time," Callagy said.

Another example of how firearms make you less safe...
If you're a perp and your intended victim happens to own one...
I love a story with a happy ending...

Any bets that all seven are close to equal as fine upstanding citizens? Maybe. Maybe not.
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
