Trespassing teens who died after shootout with homeowner were armed with handgun, machete. Mom of one teen says shooting them was 'not the right way to handle it.'

Police said the pair of trespassing male teens who broke into a Northglenn, Colorado, back yard and died after a shootout with the homeowner Sunday were armed with a semi-automatic handgun and a machete, KUSA-TV reported.

Police said Wednesday two juveniles broke a fence to gain entry into the back yard and garage-like structure attached to the home, the station added.

One juvenile had a semi-automatic handgun, and the other had a machete, police told KUSA, adding that both weapons were recovered from the scene.

One of the juveniles and the homeowner exchanged gunfire, police told the station, adding that it's unclear who fired first or how many shots were fired.

Both juveniles were shot and taken to a hospital, where they later died, KUSA said, adding that the homeowner was uninjured.

Police believe the same juveniles burglarized a nearby home just hours before the shootout, KCNC-TV reported, adding that the airsoft gun was the only item stolen from the home.
