SEATTLE, Wash. (AP) — A burglary suspect ignored numerous signs warning a Seattle homeowner was armed and prepared to shoot intruders and is in serious condition after she lived up to her promise.
KOMO reports the woman called 911 early Thursday to report she had shot an armed man as he tried to break into her home, wounding him in the shoulder.
Two other suspects were arrested nearby.
Burglars had broken into the woman’s home two days earlier while she was away, and police say this looks like a case of self-defense.
Homeowner shot burglar at her home in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood. She says her house was burglarized 2 days earlier. Police arrested the wounded burglar suspect & 2 others they say tried to flee. Neighboring businesses tell me they’ve been hit many times before. #komonews pic.twitter.com/FIQaGuWseF
