One guy sure picked the wrong Texas home to mess with.
What went down? The Harrison County Sheriff's Office said a man forced his way into a Longview residence in the 1500 block of Juanita Road around 8 p.m. Friday.
But the problem for him was that the woman inside was armed with a gun. Authorities said she ordered the intruder to leave her home, but he refused.
Fearing for her safety, the homeowner fired one shot, striking the intruder, the sheriff's office said.
Arriving deputies found the intruder wounded by a single gunshot and determined the shooting occurred while he was committing a burglary.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
