911: Ma’am, ask them politely to please not break through the door until officers arrive.
Woman: I have a gun. Is it ok to shoot them if they come through the door.
Burglar: We heard her say that and Larry’s like, “She’s talking about shooting us.” The situation has gotten way out of hand. So we took a step back and kicked open the door.
Woman: I didn’t have a choice. I saw the knife and I shot him. It was either his life or the life of my son.
Burglar: Larry wasn’t going to hurt them. We just wanted to take all their money and stuff. But you put a gun in someone’s hand… they don’t listen to reason.
… Burglar: Now it’s that much harder for burglars like me to do their job. What kind of world do we live in where you need to be worried about being shot at work.
