Georgia Self-Defense: Alleged home invader fatally shot in Warner Robins :: 08/14/2017

An armed man was fatally shot early Sunday when he allegedly broke into an apartment in Warner Robins.

According to Jennifer Parson with Warner Robins Police, officers responded to a home invasion with shots fired call around 4 a.m. Sunday in the 200-block of Northlake Drive.

She says their initial investigation shows that 24-year-old Cartrell Brooks was armed with a handgun and tried to break into the apartment.

Brooks was shot ‘at least once’ when he entered the apartment and later died at a local hospital.

Two men were inside the apartment at the time – who Parson identified as Malandon West and James Alderson -- but she says police are still investigating who shot Brooks.

She says no charges have been filed at this time and the investigation is ongoing.
