After discovering his Henderson, Tenn., store's alarm system had been disabled, owner Edward Plunk decided to stay at the business overnight. When an intruder carrying a shiny object in his hands broke in during the early morning hours and advanced toward the businessman, Plunk opened fire, killing the burglar.
Authorities ruled the shooting justifiable and revealed the suspect was believed to have been the ringleader of the largest burglary ring in southwestern Tennessee. (The Sun, Jackson, Tenn.)
