Home Invasion Suspect Killed By Neighbor In Kendall 5/4/06 7am Yusila Ramirez A home invasion robbery has turned deadly for one of the bad guys, while a second suspect was captured and a third remains loose. It all started around 10:45 p.m. Wednesday night the trio of armed home invaders knocked on the door of 15980 SW 76th Street. When the victim opened the door, the three armed men forced their way in with a gun to the victim's head. The victim's girlfriend was in another room. When she realized what was going on, she quickly ran out of the back of the house with her cell phone and called police. Then she ran to her neighbor's home for help. That neighbor then grabbed a gun and ran next door to help. At some point however, he was confronted by the 3 armed suspects and there was an exchange of gunfire. One suspect was hit and he died on the scene. Another suspect was quickly captured by a MDPD K9 officer, but a third however, managed to elude police and is still at large. Tragically, when the neighbor ran out of his home with his gun, his 12 year old son also ran out of the house to help while holding a butcher knife. Then his sister also ran out of the house and during the commotion, the young girl was accidentally cut by her brother holding the butcher knife. She was transported to the hospital and is now in surgery. Miami-Dade Homicide detectives are presently investigating this case. Anyone with information is asked to call CRIMESTOPPERS at 305-471-TIPS.
