Drag him inside? How do you explain the drag marks and trail of blood? It doesn't matter whether the do-bad is in your house, outside your house, on the other side of the street, or a block away: if you feel your life is in danger (and a reasonable person would agree with you), you have the absolute right of self defense. When the cops arrive, keep repeating: "I thought he was going to kill me and I'm too distressed to say any more."
