If you're going to use deadly force, know when you can and when you cannot use it. Just FYI, being egged is not a good reason. Also FYI, once the egging has stopped and the egg-throwers are driving away, you can't really claim self-defense; the threat (such as it was) is gone.

A Henderson man who allegedly took matters into his own hands and shot at two teens throwing eggs at his truck has been arrested and charged with attempted murder, Henderson Police said.
Officials said Christopher Brunelle, 22, called 911 at about 11:50 p.m. Sunday and said he fired two shots at a Jeep Cherokee after its occupants had thrown "projectiles" at his truck. Brunelle was sitting in his truck in front of his Dalsetter Drive home near Anthem Highlands Drive at the time of the incident, police said.
