Somehow, I missed this story out of Spokane late last week.
Widowed grandmother detains intruder at gunpoint
It's pretty much a happy story all around. The police point this out as an ideal home defense case, pointing out how the bad guy was 'at least half her age and twice her size'. The lady has defended her castle AND potentially helped the Spokane Police Department solve a few other crimes, as they think this guy made a few other B&E's that night. And she did it all without having a death on her conscience, even if society may have been better off without this guy.
The only question unanswered(and unaddressed in this article) is...did she mean not to hit him? I mean...was this a 'warning shot' situation, or did she just flat out miss?
Either way, the bad guy took it seriously enough that he waited on the couch for the police to show up.
Good Job, Sandra Mize. Somewhere, your husband is very proud of you.
