About 15 minutes later, officers were called to reports of a man stumbling along a sidewalk in the 4100 block of 40th st.-- nearly 8 miles away from the restaurant.

TX: Man shoots, kills intruder: "A man suspected of trying to break into a Magnolia home is dead, shot by the son of the homeowners, while a second man charged in the attempted burglary is in custody, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office reports. Shortly before 8 a.m. Saturday, deputies were called to a home in the 16000 block of Burklin Lane in response to a panic alarm. As they were on their way to the home, a third party called dispatch and said he was responding to the home and needed immediate police assistance. Deputies arrived within three minutes of the call and found a man laying bleeding, unresponsive and not breathing in the home’s driveway. The homeowners told deputies that their adult son was home alone and asleep when he heard what sounded like someone trying to force entry into the home from a side door. The son got out of bed, got a handgun and left his bedroom to activate the panic alarm. He then went to the living room, where he was confronted by an armed intruder. The son fired his pistol at least three times in the direction of the intruder, who fled outside to the driveway, the MCSO reports. The intruder then collapsed and died."


Colorado Supreme Court ruling: Guns allowed on CU campuses: "The state Supreme Court ruled Monday that the University of Colorado cannot ban concealed-weapon permit holders from bringing their guns to campus. And while gun-rights activists are celebrating the ruling, CU says it discounts the regents' authority to govern safety on its campuses. Colorado's highest court sided with Students for Concealed Carry on Campus, a gun-rights group that filed a lawsuit against CU in 2008, arguing that a university policy banning concealed weapons from its campuses violates state gun laws. "It's a great victory for gun rights, and civil rights in general," said James Manley, the attorney with Mountain States Legal Foundation who represented the gun-rights group. "CU will now have to fall in line and follow the state law." Colorado State University has allowed guns on its campus for a decade."
