EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) - An Evansville man who held two home invasion
suspects at gunpoint until police arrived shared his story with 14 News.
It happened about 10:30 on Wednesday night in the 1,000 block of Idlewild
Drive.
22-year-old Paul Lukac and 24-year-old Justin Henschen are accused of
breaking into John and Matt Fugate's home, but those two suspects had no
idea what was waiting for them.
A threat on his family, turned the soft-spoken Matt Fugate, into an armed
protector.
Matt was behind his bedroom door when out of nowhere, he says two men kicked
in the front door of his Idlewild Drive home.
"I raced for the gun vault and had my gun in my hand in 5-seconds and then
answered the door," says Matt.
His brother John's 911 call explains what happened next.
"I just had somebody kick down my door, and my brother has him at gunpoint
on the floor," John tells the 911-operator.
Matt says the suspects were surprised and with no other options didn't move
until police arrived. For two-long-minutes, Matt's pistol stayed locked on
his targets loaded and at the ready.
"I'm relieved that nothing bad came of it," says Matt. "That it ended the
way it did, peacefully."
Both suspects remain in the Vanderburgh County Jail charged with armed
burglary and robbery with a firearm. | a**e

Anyone else notice that these stories where the homeowner comes out ahead
are in states that respect the citizens right to defend themselves? If this
was across the border in IL, it would have been just another story buried in
the back of the paper of yet one more murder of an unarmed homeowner.
