A couple of really dumb burglers displayed the typical brain-dead American approach to guns.  In other words, thinking of them as magical boom-sticks that make them all-powerful, without giving any thought to the fact that they are just a tool and only as good as the person holding onto them...

...so, how'd that work out for them?

They got themselves filled full of holes by their own weapons.  The unarmed suburbanites that they were trying to burgle disarmed them and turned the weapons against them.  The assumption is, that they (the suburbanites) will not be charged.

Booyah.
