An intended rape victim shot and killed her attacker this morning in Cape Girardeau when he broke into her home to rape her a second time, police said.

The 57-year-old woman shot Ronnie W. Preyer, 47, a registered sex offender, in the chest with a shotgun when he broke through her locked basement door.

The woman told police he was the same man who raped her several days earlier. Officials do not intend to seek charges against her.

Officials do not intend to seek charges against her.

Gee, ya think? I was disappointed to learn about the shogun blast to center mass, I was hoping she shot him in the rape kit and he took an hour or two to croak.
