More Info: Spokane homeowner Gail Gerlach will be charged with first-degree manslaughter today in the fatal shooting of the thief he caught stealing his SUV in March, according to the Spokane County Prosecutor’s office. Gerlach, 56, killed 25-year-old Brendon Kaluza-Graham with a single shot from his 9mm handgun as the thief sped away in the 1997 Chevrolet Suburban that had been left idling in the driveway at 1419 N. Lee St. Gerlach told police that he saw the thief raise his arm and point what he thought was a gun at him while driving away. No firearms were found in the SUV, which had tinted windows, authorities have said.
