Sheriff: ‘Expect to Be Shot’ if You Break into a Florida Home

Manatee County Sheriff Rick Wells stood in support of a homeowner who
fatally wounded an intruder Thursday, noting that people who break
into Florida homes should “expect to be shot.”

Breitbart News reported that a homeowner in Bradenton, Florida, shot
an alleged intruder around 9:00 p.m. Thursday night. The intruder died
Friday morning.

Manatee County Sheriff Wells addressed the incident and was quoted by
Fox News as saying, “[The homeowner] knew something bad was about to
happen and he didn’t stall. He grabbed his firearm [and] told his wife
to get into a safe spot.”

Wells added, “This is the state of Florida. If you want to break into
someone’s home, you should expect to be shot.”

The deceased alleged intruder was identified as 23-year-old Jorge
Nestevan Flores-Toledo, who, according to Fox News,  was “from
Mexico.”

A second alleged intruder, who fled the scene after the homeowner
opened fire, was identified as “an illegal immigrant from Chile” named
Michel Soto-Mella. He is charged with armed burglary.
