NRA Women The Armed Citizen Shooting A Pistol

A 36-year-old woman in Gray’s Harbor, Wash., shot and killed a man who violated a restraining order and broke into her home. A 60-year-old man living with the woman initially confronted the knife wielding 47-year-old intruder, allowing the woman an opportunity to retrieve her gun and fatally shoot the intruder. No one was arrested, and the residents were safe. (apnews.com, Gray’s Harbor, Wash., 11/28/19)
