As I understand TX law, you can shoot a burglar if the crime is occuring at night, but not during the day. Right?

A person is justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property:
(1) if he would be justified in using force against the other under Section 9.41; and
(2) when and to the degree he reasonably believes the deadly force is immediately necessary:
(A) to prevent the other’s imminent commission of arson, burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the nighttime, or criminal mischief during the nighttime; or
(B) to prevent the other who is fleeing immediately after committing burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, or theft during the nighttime from escaping with the property; and
(3) he reasonably believes that:
(A) the land or property cannot be protected or recovered by any other means; or
(B) the use of force other than deadly force to protect or recover the land or property would expose the actor or another to a substantial risk of death or serious bodily injury.

That may be why they haven't found the shooter, but there may be other extenuating circumstances, like he/she was not supposed to have a gun. It says, it occurred, at about 8 pm, but I don't know if that is considered nighttime or not since it is still light. Either way, perhaps, the experience will sway this pair of misfits to seek other employment. JMHO
