It's hard to judge the situation when so many holes are in the story. (I guess we should be used to it by now.)

With the information given, my sympathy goes to the homeowner. If an angry group of people (often called a mob) were outside threatening someone inside my house, my first inclination would be to grab the most powerful gun I could shoot. I would also stuff spare magazines and a BUG in my waistband before picking up the phone. I don't think angry mobs wait for the cops to arrive in order to act.
I have a hard time feeling sorry for people that instigate the violence, then claim to be the victims when things don't go as they had planned.
