"EAST STROUDSBURG, MONROE COUNTY (WOLF) — One man was shot and killed and another seriously injured after five of them attempted to burglarize a home in East Stroudsburg.

Police say it happened around 5:45pm Monday at a home on McKinley Way in Smithfield Township.

During an attempted robbery, the victim, 26-year-old Tyheem Downs, fought his attackers and used a gun during the confrontation.

A 23-year-old from New Jersey was shot and killed. His name has not yet been released by authorities.

Another of the assailants, Unique K. Rainey, a 23-year-old from Scranton, was seriously injured and the three other known suspects; a 21-year-old from Scranton, a 19-year-old from East Stroudsburg, and another from Scranton, fled the scene.

Police say this was an isolated incident and believe Downs was specifically targeted. There is no threat to the general public.

This investigation is ongoing.

Anyone participating in a home invasion is bad news. But because the man had a gun they were unsuccessful and more importantly a lifetime of criminal activity from the 23 year old was stopped forever. Had he not been killed he likely would be committing more robberies, assaults or worse for another three decades! With so many negative stories dominating the media its nice to have a little bit of joy like this story every now and then.
