NC:Homeowner shot, two invaders also wounded

 Robert Monroe is the defending homeowner


When sheriff’s department officers arrived at that address, he said, they found Robert Monroe Newman, 60, with a gunshot wound to the chest. Also there were Newman’s wife, Linda Newman, 59; and their son, Robert Luke Newman, 34, all of 688 Little Elkin Church Road. A woman who was a guest but not a relative of the Newmans also was there, said Shew.
