A Tucson, Arizona, woman took matters into her own hands by shooting and killing a registered sex offender who attempted to break into her home, according to reports.
FOX 10 in Phoenix reported that the incident occurred at about 2 p.m. on Aug. 11 at a home near Garvey and Pyle Roads.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department said a 54-year-old woman was home alone, when 42-year-old Jayson Magrum allegedly tried to break into her home.
The woman saw what was happening and started yelling for Magrum to leave, but he reportedly continued to gain access to the home.
"The female armed herself with a handgun and fired a shot out of a window to attempt to scare the male away," investigators said.

Well 30 years ago full auto was easier to get papers for.
And it is still perfectly legal today, if you have what is required. (I am not sure what that is today, and I have no use for full auto, waste of ammo.

Yes, he chose badly.
I wouldn’t advise the “a couple more” thought. Threat stopped/shooting stopped. Unless you’re infatuated with meeting Bubba in the old cell block. IMO
Sounds great to me.
Ruins the parallelism of the gag, though.
Nope. No registration required in Arizona. There used to be a couple of advantages to a concealed carry permit, like carrying in a restaurant that serves alcohol, but now the only reason for a CCW is for reciprocity and a few less hoops when purchasing at a dealer.
Yes… handgun. Another poster said shotgun. I was correcting him.
My “serious” weapons are Sigs and HKs.
A permit for concealed carry has not been required in Arizona since July 29, 2010.
If there’s no “registered gun owner” involved, there is no gag, or at least it’s completely pointless.
And I was confirming your post.
Gunpowder is a chemical...just sayin’.
