WA:Husband Shoots Home Invader, Elderly Couple Survives

Is it reasonable to assume that someone who breaks into a house and starts beating on the homeowner, and who refuses to say what he wants, is simple "looking for help"?  The toxicology results will be very interesting. 

BUCKLEY, Wash. — A Pierce County man says he was defending himself when he shot and killed a man who broke into his home late Monday night.

 The man crashed through the front gate of their home. She said he smashed out the windows on their front door, barged inside and started beating her husband.

 "We are so lucky we had a gun," his wife said. "I'll never feel safe in my home again."
