Burglar Shot and Killed

A burglar is shot and killed while trying to break into a Pascagoula family's home.

20-year-old Javorous Tims had just gotten out of jail two days before he attempted to burglarize a mother and her son at the Granada Apartment complex, Thursday night.

Pascagoula Police say Tim's tried to make his way through a bedroom window when the son fired two rounds, hitting the suspect once.
Lieutenant Davey Davis with the Pascagoula Police Department says it is a justifiable homicide.
"If you have the means to defend yourself...by all means you need to that. Especially if someone is coming in and potentially assaulting your mother,"Said Lieutenant Davis.

Although authorities say Tims wasn't armed, Pascagoula Police tell me neither the son or his mother will face charges. The investigation is still ongoing and will be presented to the Jackson County District Attorney's Office.
