DALLAS — A Dallas resident fatally shot a man who allegedly threw a rock through their window and threatened people inside their home Sunday night, police said.
The shooting happened about 9:40 p.m. in the 2500 block of Inadale Avenue, near Oates Drive and Ferguson Road in East Dallas.
Police were called to the home on a burglary call. When they arrived, they found a man, Roman Valle, 33, outside of the home, suffering from a shotgun wound, police said.
Valle was taken to a hospital, where he died.
Police said investigators learned that Valle had thrown a large rock through a window of the home and was threatening people inside.
A resident inside the home, believing Valle "was going to come into the home and harm those inside," shot through closed blinds, striking Valle, according to a police news release.
More information about the shooting was not released.
No arrests have been made. Police are still investigating.
