Residents in Waukegan, Illinois, part of the greater “gun controlled” Chicagoland area, took justice into their own hands on Tuesday and left a pair of would-be home invaders dead on the lawn, to be carried away by police. The Tenorio brothers made a big mistake when they decided to terrorize this happy extended family. To Second Amendment supporters like one fast acting vigilante, gun control means hitting what you aim at.
Two men dead on the lawn
By the time police got there it was all over and the suspects were dead. Christian Tenorio, 36, and his 34-year-old baby brother, Jimy Tenorio, died together on Tuesday when they invaded the wrong Waukegan home. Around 10 a.m., someone inside called 911 to say two armed men were trying to break in.
From what sources tell the local press, the dead brothers parked just down the street and approached the house “dressed in neon work vests.” They were expecting the single family home to be vacant, but it wasn’t. The homeowner explains she wasn’t there at the time but her niece was, babysitting a small child. Also in the home was a man in his 30’s who “rents a room in the basement.” He earned his keep that day. “If she would have been by herself, it would have been a totally different story,” the victim’s aunt said.
The niece relates that “they were knocking the door down with their feet, so she just opened it a little bit to see who it was, and they forced themselves in.” That’s when the niece “screamed for help.” Christian Tenorio pulled his revolver. About then, the handgun armed roommate emerged from the basement “and exchanged fire with one of the suspects.” He shot Christian, but he wasn’t dead yet.
Dragging him out
Jimy managed to grab his brother’s gun to battle it out with the basement dweller, dragging Christian back out with him in retreat. The renter decided to dash back to his room for an assault rifle. “Jimy Tenorio and the man exchanged multiple rounds of gunfire before the younger Tenorio was shot in the front yard,” police advise. They were both dead when cops got there. That’s not a recommended thing to do. Once they’re on the way back out and no longer firing then they’re no longer a threat either. The overworked cops gave him a lesson on the finer points and told him not to do that if it happens again.
Since the men were already dead, police tended to the hysterical woman, the toddler she was babysitting and the small family dog. All of them ran outside during the gun battle and none of them were harmed. Police Commander Joe Florip is scratching his head. “I can’t remember the last time where we had two people try to break into a home, if that’s what this ends up to be, where they’re shot and found in the front yard. This is a very isolated and specific incident, and I don’t recall ever having anything like this.”
The neighbors were a little disturbed by it all too. “I was sitting up in the living room, watching TV, and then, I heard them… I looked outside. You heard the three pops and then two pops,” John Schneider told the local news. Commander Florip insists “This is going to be a full-court press from our police department working on this investigation, so we can get some answers.” Maybe he can answer how the criminals got the gun. Illinois requires gun registration cards. Neither of the dead brothers had one, but both the niece and the renter did, proving that criminals totally ignore the laws. No charges have been filed.
To clarify, was it really an “assault rifle” or was it an AR-15? Despite the Left’s misattribution, “AR” does not stand for “assault rifle” nor does it mean “automatic rifle”. it stands for “ArmaLite Rifle” which refers to the company that developed the design.
Both brothers won’t do that again I’m sure.
I seriously doubt these two brothers had any intentions of registering a gun. Perhaps because both had rap sheets and would not be able to own a gun. At least these two won’t be harming anyone else. Now let them face their maker.
Lesson of the day….Move out of democrat controlled states.
It ended the way it should end with the invaders dead, not wounded. “Dead” saves the local government money by not having to house, feed, medicate, try and sentence them.
Never “shoot to wound”, for a wounded animal (they are predators) can turn on you viciously. Anyone not sucking air is no longer a threat.
yes! Well done. intruders and criminals have no business carrying a gun thats not registered. Their intentions were more than clear.. You’re right Meathead.!
Good for him!
Seems like good gun control in action.
Gun control is hitting what you aim at.
see the system works
What? The criminals didn’t have gun registration cards? How can that be possible?
Great Job man!
OOOOOH HELL YEAH!!! ABOUT TIME THE 2ND AMENDMENT IS WORKING FOR A TRUE LAW A BIDING CITIZENS, BY THE WAY ,WHERE ARE THE PEACEFUL PROTESTERS FOR THOSE TWO CRIMINAL ???? OH WAIT!!! THEY WEREN’T BLACK!!! Psssss!!!! EVEN DOUBLE STANDARD FOR NU-BLACK FOLKS. BUT ANYWAY ILLINOIS DOESN’T HAVE TO SUPPORT TWO POS FOR REST OF THEIR IF THEY WEREN’T DEAD, JUST THANK ALMIGHTY GOD FOR THE 2ND AMENDMENT.
Love a story with a happy ending
Two more down and many to go – load up.
Thank goodness the guy was there, the girl and toddler would have been at these two thugs mercy.
That part of the Chicago Metropolitan area must not be run by a BLITHERING IDIOT as Chicago proper is. Were police doing their job slime like these two dead MORONS would be dead instead of going to jail time and time again. At least these two will no longer be a waste of Tax dollars. The Mayor of Chicago should be charged with two counts of Murder because her IGNORANCE makes FOOLS like these two try their crimes.
Certainly the human race is better off without those two brothers. That article intimates that even though the brothers were in the front yard, they were still firing.
