Police ID slain home invasion suspect
ESSEX JUNCTION, Vt. -
The lives of two men are forever changed by a break-in Friday morning in Essex Junction. The alleged intruder is dead and the homeowner is worried he'll be charged.
"This is, I think, any homeowner's worst nightmare," said Chittenden County State's Attorney T.J. Donovan.
Donovan must decide whether or not to charge 40-year-old Shawn Garrett with the death of Ryan Morton-Lane of Connecticut. Police say the 30-year-old man broke into Garrett's home and threatened him with a knife. During the altercation the Connecticut man ended up dead, with a single stab wound to the heart. Police recovered two knives from the scene.
