Home invasion in NH but victim charged with assult

[Hazy]

There were 6 kids that invaded my nephews apartment at 1am in the morning. They kicked open the door and sprayed the fire estinguisher and sprayed it so it would be all cloudy. One of the guys had a gun. My nephew had a baseball that he quickly grabbed and hit the first person that came in. And My nephew's finacee's brother had a knife in his hand and started stabbing at the guys. 5 of them flew the scene while one layed on the floor. The police told them that the next time you should of just killed them all to make their job easier. One of the police officer's was smaking the person that was laying on the floor telling him he isn't getting on the stretcher who sent you, why are you here.

The police kept my nephew informed to tell them that they didn't get the other five but they think they will have them before the holidays. Unfortunately, they charge the one they got with a riot, the five are still out some where. And Arrersted my nephew and his fiancee's brother with assult and they are in jail.

My question is..if someone forcefully enters your house. You defend your children then why are you the person being arrested for assult when you were defending yourself? Yes my nephew is on probation they said he is in violation of probation so he can not get bailed out of jail!! So I am confused as to why my nephew would be the criminal in this when he is the victim?

i know but the law doesnt make sense. he violated cause he has a weapon or knife or some object as a weapon. do you know that if a burlger went to your house unarmed and flee away from you and you shot them. you will be charge with murder? where is the logic behide this? the law say justice for all. i guess what they mean.
