Intruder Enters Texas Residence With Gun, Fight Ensues With Homeowner

When a home intruder entered a Texas residence armed with a gun, he likely thought he had the upper hand over anyone who might be inside. He found out he was wrong when he came face to face with the homeowner.
800 Block of Spring Street in Longview, Texas (Photo Credit: Google Maps) Kevin Mitchell Gonzales learned the hard way why they say you “don’t mess with Texas.” The 28-year-old Hispanic male allegedly tried to enter a Longview home without permission and was thwarted by a homeowner, who wasn’t going to let him get away without a fight. As a struggle ensued, Gonzales pulled a gun, but things still wouldn’t work out in his favor. Gonzales allegedly entered the home in the 800 Block of Spring Street through the garage late on a Monday night. When the unnamed homeowner found Gonzales in his garage allegedly attempting to enter his home, a pretty violent struggle began. During the fight, Gonzales pulled out a handgun and fired one round from the 45 caliber pistol, CBS 19 reported.

When officers arrived, they found the homeowner uninjured. The same couldn’t be said for Kevin Mitchell Gonzales, who apparently took a brutal beating after pulling a gun on the wrong guy and being hit several times in the face. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and Gonzales’ mugshots, featuring a badly battered, bloodied, bruised, and swollen face, speak volumes. From the looks of things, this is one guy who definitely regretted his poor decisions and picking the wrong house to attempt an alleged break-in:

He explained that the fight ensued with Gonzales firing his pistol. The victim said he was able to get the gun away from Gonzales and hold him down until the police arrived. In addition to Gonzales’ injuries, the garage showed evidence of the violent struggle that took place between the accused criminal and the homeowner. During the scuffle, Gonzales allegedly crashed into a wall, leaving it smashed in, just like his face.

In addition, it was only Gonzales who ended up in trouble with the law as he was placed under arrest — which is when things only went from bad to worse for the battered would-be burglar. During Gonzales’ arrest, officers found 18 Lorazepam pills in a clear plastic bag in the suspect’s pants pocket, which resulted in an additional charge. Gonzales was charged with Criminal Trespass with a Deadly Weapon and Possession of a Controlled Substance. He was transported to the Gregg County Ja
