A 78-year-old homeowner has been arrested by murder detectives after a suspected burglar he fought with in his own kitchen died of a stab wound.
The pensioner, named locally as Richard Osborn-Brooks, was upstairs asleep with his wife when he was woken by the two men breaking into his suburban home in Hither Green, south-east London last night.
He was forced into his kitchen by one of the men, who was armed with a screwdriver, before a struggle ensued.
The intruder, a 38-year-old man, was left with wounds to his chest and local residents say he collapsed in a neighbouring road and died in hospital.
The homeowner was initially detained on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm but was later arrested on suspicion of murder.
Because, in (formerly Great)Britain, there's really no right of self-defense anymore*, as Kevin noted a few years back. Much like what much of the left wants here.
*Unless you're a protected species, such as the Sikhs protecting their places during the riots a few years ago

What you have to understand is that pretty much all the Brits - and most Canadians for that matter - are subjects, not citizens. They vote for this shite, they defend it and look down their noses at guys like us as if we're trigger happy psychopaths. Relax, the women and vibrants are in charge.
