I read the article how it went down. That was a horrible thing. It is unthinkable how they did that. I pray they catch these punks. I would like to track them myself. I feel so bad for his family. I pray that she can move away from there and can recover along with the children. So young. I just want to send her flowers but they will do no good to fill the empty spot in her heart.

Home Invasion Results in Man’s Death

TARKINGTON, August 1, 2006 - The Liberty County Sheriff’s Department is investigating a home invasion robbery that claimed the life of 25 year of Thomas Wiegner in Tarkington early Tuesday morning. Investigators were on the scene all day today processing the crime scene and collecting evidence in the case.

According to Liberty County Sheriff Greg Arthur, around 3:00 AM on Tuesday, the sound of barking dogs lead Thomas Wiegner out of the house to see what was going on where he was accosted by three black males. Wiegner returned to the house and during this time a scuffle took place. He was shot once taking his life. A dog inside the house was also shot and killed.

There were four adults and three children in the home last night. The assailants tide up everyone in the home.

Justice of the Peace Glenn Pruitt conducted an inquest at the scene and ordered an autopsy.

Sheriff Arthur requests that anyone who may have witnessed suspicious activity or automobiles in the area of Davis Hill Road near FM 2518 to contact the Liberty County Sheriff’s Department with that information at 936 336-4500.

I am sickened by this senseless murder. I am glad there is not much mention of the bulldogs in the news article, but I am appalled at what happened to Tom.

My condolences to his family.

 

Yeah, im sorry Tab I know you lost a friend...and there is noting earthly or magical that will make it the same...I just hope you and his family know you have my condolences....and I know you'll remember.... pain is like a footprint....it fades...and time heals wounds...

 

Horrible tragedy!

Do we need to be looking for any dogs? if so can you post pics and descripts.

 

Is there anything we can do to help the family?

And what about his dogs? He had a fine yard with some damn good dogs. But now? I just read something about that they will all be taken by the SPCA and killed? Anyone know more? I hope that is not happening. The poor man would not have wanted all his dogs to die too.
