Wash. resident arrested in fatal shooting

VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) - Police in Vancouver, Wash., have arrested a resident in the fatal shooting of a reported prowler at the man's home.

Police spokeswoman Kim Kapp says 27-year-old Sean Doucette was arrested for investigation of second-degree murder and booked into the Clark County Jail.

An initial call from the scene at about 4 a.m. Tuesday reported a prowler near a home. Kapp says police received another call minutes later saying the prowler had been shot.

The dead man was not immediately identified.

KATU-TV in Portland, Ore., quotes First Response Inc. president Dave Foglio as saying Doucette is a security guard in the company's patrol division.

The Columbian reports that tax records show the Vancouver property is owned by Sean and Rachelle Doucette.

    Most of the so called
    "Liberals" would rather this guy beat and rape the homeowners then get away. They don't think you should be allowed to protect yourself, that you should allow criminals to take advantage of you and kill you because they, just like the Republicans, ARE CRIMINALS that want to rape you of your money and physically rape you before killing you off. We are just "worthless eaters" to the "liberals" and others in charge.
