"Three Standish men were arrested this morning after they allegedly broke into a home on Mill Lane and attempted to rob the homeowner."........

"The men broke down the door to the home, only to encounter the homeowner, who was armed with a shotgun."


Not much detail in the article, but it appears to be a win for the good guys.

In any of the three northern states, this is celebrated as good news. In the southern three states, especially Boston metro area, the homeowner would be in jail, his gun confiscated, his house ransacked, while the three criminals would post a small bond and be back on the street within a day.
