Granny got her gun: Woman thwarts burglary attempt
Carthage, MO:
A 39-year-old woman and a male juvenile remained in custody Monday in Jasper County after being foiled in an alleged burglary attempt by a grandmother with a gun.
The 63-year-old was eating lunch with her grandson when she saw the two suspects approach her back door with a crowbar. She got a handgun and waited while the male juvenile pried open her back door. Things went downhill for the robbers at that point.
The UPI says quotes a lieutenant with the local sheriff’s office: “We’re thinking of hiring her.”
