BRISTOL, Fla. -- Authorities said a burglar with a fake gun was shot and killed by a Panhandle homeowner with a real gun. The Liberty County Sheriff's Office reports that Octavious Barnes, 24, broke into the home of Bradley Harvil, 82, home and tried to steal about $1,100 in cash Sunday night. Authorities said Barnes was waiving around a toy pistol, colored black with a marker to look real, and assaulted Harvil. The homeowner was able to get to his real .357 magnum and shot Barnes in the chest and in the eye.
