NEW ORLEANS (AP) - New Orleans police say a woman fatally shot a man who had broken into her home. The shooting happened around 7 p.m. Tuesday.
Police say the woman had just entered the home with her three children, when an armed intruder broke in a short time later. They say the man flashed a gun and the woman pulled her own weapon and fired at the intruder multiple times.
The unidentified man was taken to a hospital where he (was pronounced) dead.
Detectives have classified the shooting as justifiable. The case will now go to the Orleans Parish District Attorney's office for review.
Banglist is perfect, thanks. I’ll check out the NRA site too.
Depends on whether the perp was one of eric's peoples and the shooter was not.
Most likely it was an Amish kid...it is Nawlins after all.
Hope she hit multiple times.
Good job lady!
