This is a followup to:
The amazing title is just the beginning:
The homeowner said he took a "severe beating," but credited his wife for saving him.
"I've got a fractured eye socket, a fractured sinus cavity, a concussion, 20 stitches and three staples in my head," said King.
"Them guys came in with two normal pistols and my AR stopped it. [My wife] evened the playing field and kept them from killing me."
The sheriff's office added that the firearm was in the home legally.
Feel free to forward this story to anyone who asks you why someone would need an AR-15.
