A man is charged with attempted murder and a raft of firearms offences after helping fend off home invaders, one of whom he’s now charged with shooting.

Kyle Earl Munroe was arrested on July 12 after RCMP and Halifax Regional Police responded to a report of a home invasion involving firearms at a home in Porters Lake.

Police said that three men entered the residence with guns and a struggle took place with two men inside.

The two in the home seized a firearm from one of the suspects and several shots were fired as the suspects fled. Police later located one of the suspects, who had non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

Munroe faces charges of attempted murder, intent to discharge a firearm, intent to discharge a firearm when being reckless, careless use of a firearm, improper storage of a firearm, pointing a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a firearm knowing that possession is unauthorized, and possession for the purpose of trafficking.

“Right now they’re just pending charges,” said spokeswoman Chris Hansen at the Public Prosecution Service.

Munroe is banned from any contact with two named individuals, must attend court as ordered, keep the peace and be of good behaviour, not leave his residence except for essential activities such as work or medical appointments, remain in Nova Scotia, not consume drugs or alcohol, not possess a cellphone or pager, have no weapons, and answer the door to police when they check at his home.

Munroe is due back in Dartmouth Provincial Court on Aug. 22 for election and plea.

What the fuck? They weren't even the homeowner's guns, but ones he wrestled away from the perps?

And considering that it's not even his weapon, how asinine is it that one of the charges is "improper storage of a firearm" :shakehead:

I hate this shit. Anytime someone defends their home with a gun, they're in for a legal fight. There's been a few big wins for homeowners in recent years, hopefully this one is a no brainer for a judge. I still don't even understand who's decision it was to arrest the poor guy on all these charges :smh:

Next time, knock the intruders unconscious, tie them up and gag them, take them out into the wilderness with shovels, and bury them alive in 10 foot graves. Call no one. Report it to no one. If you're going to be charged with murder, might as well go the full 9.
