Elderly Miss man killed with own gun in random home invasion as sheriff questions possible religious motive

An elderly Mississippi man was fatally shot with his own gun while fighting an alleged burglar inside his home, and his wife managed to escape, authorities said.

Union County Sheriff Jimmy Edwards told Fox News Digital that Eric Basco broke into Bobby McGill’s home around 4 a.m. Thursday while McGill and his wife were asleep.

McGill, 81, struggled with Basco, who got hold of McGill’s gun and fatally shot him multiple times, Edwards said.
