One of the brothers suffered minor injuries from the struggle with the suspect. The suspect, who is not being identified due to his age, is facing numerous felony charges and is currently being held in a juvenile detention facility. Interestingly, the suspect was armed with a single action .44 mag. According to police there was a second suspect who ran out of the house after the pair was discovered. He remains at large. This is only the 4th defensive gun use we’ve documented in the state of Connecticut and the 1,235th defensive gun use we’ve documented overall. This incident is the one of the most common types of defensive gun uses. That is, one in which no one was actually shot. Despite this being one of the most common types of defensive gun uses, these incidents are often not included in statistics about defensive gun uses. Many of these statistics and studies focus solely on justifiable homicides, which represent only a fraction of total defensive gun uses
