BYRON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — A homeowner who shot and killed a man who tried to break into his home south of Grand Rapids early Thursday said he felt he had no other option.
“I told him to go away, ‘I have a gun on you,’ and he would not go away and kept advancing on us. So…” homeowner Alan Lenhart said later Thursday morning. “We had to do it. There was no way around it. Absolutely no way around it.”
The Kent County Sheriff’s Office said that shortly after midnight, the intruder tried to break into a house on 108th Street SW near Wilson Avenue in Byron Township. Sgt. Eric Brunner told News 8 that the suspect was armed with a handgun.
