I just caught this in Thursday's paper. It happened in Detroit. Granted, the guy has style, but he should have kept his mouth shut. He should let Schwarzenegger and Eastwood handle the one-liners, and remember that this is real life, not a movie. Ditto for the moron criminal. They should split the Darwin Award for this one.
Edit: I just saw that this was posted in the Michigan section, but maybe you don't check the Michigan section.

Man fatally shoots burglary suspect

DETROIT (AP) — Authorities said a Detroit man whose home was broken into three times in the last week fatally shot an unarmed burglary suspect who verbally provoked him.
Thirty-one-year-old Tigh Croff was arraigned Wednesday on charges of second-degree murder and using a firearm in a felony. A magistrate set his bond at $40,000 and scheduled a preliminary examination Jan. 11.
Police said Croff began chasing two men he found in his backyard at 12:30 a.m. Monday.
The Detroit television and radio stations reported one man escaped, but that 53-year-old Herbert Silas of Detroit turned around, raised his hands and said to the licensed gun-carrier: ‘‘What are you going to do, shoot me?’’
Reports state Croff replied ‘‘absolutely’’ and fired.
