HEALDSBURG -- An armed man wearing a black, ninja-style mask was shot to death by a Healdsburg man this morning after he attacked the man's wife outside their home and chased her inside, police said.
The shooting happened about 7:30 a.m. at the end of Sunset Drive, a semi-rural street on the east side of town.
The woman was about to take the couple's two Wheaton terrier dogs for a walk when the masked man jumped her outside her garage, police said. The woman struggled, broke away and ran screaming into the house, with the attacker in pursuit.
Her screams awoke her husband. The man, whom police identified only as a man in his 60s, "grabbed their handgun, probably a .357 ... and fired more than one shot," Police Chief Susan Jones said.
The intruder "had what looked like a firearm in his hand," Jones said. He died at the scene.

Ping!
teppu jutsu beats ninjutsu hands down. It's also easier to learn
Give that man an R.G.Dunn.
Don't bring something that only "looks" like a firearm to a gunfight!
And whoever else regularly has to contend with ninjas
Geeeez- I know a couple from Healdsburg who are in their 60's and have dogs. Don't know exactly what kind. I know they live rural. I hope it's not them, but I KNOW he would SHOOT ANYONE who was hurting her.
IF it's them, I am mighty proud of him.
If it's not him, I am still proud that there is ONE LESS criminal looking for trouble.
Another American citizen protecting his family and property.
Winner! LOL! (Your sensei is obviously a master of "gogetgun".)
Have they arrested the homeowner yet?
1. Shogun
2. Pull trigger
The ban on gun ownership (so far) is limited to the boundries of the city and county of San Francisco, currently considering changing its name to "Weeniville, California."
Hey man, nice shot.
Maybe not, Kaliforniastan has (surprisingly now) a very homeowner friendly "make my day" law if inside your residence. As the ninja/perp chased the wife back inside, he unwittingly gave "pops" a free pass.
LOL, that's awesome.
We took some mag-light tactical defense courses: Mag-Fu.
He could not have been a real Ninja. Because everyone knows all Ninjas are invincible!!! And only a Nija can kill a Ninja!!!
