Gun toting Granny holds punk at bay!
This is one of the best stories I’ve read about this year. Seems a punk 17 year old broke into an elderly woman’s home this past Sunday afternoon. What the punk didn’t know is that Granny aka Leda Smith was packing! She had just returned from church when she found her door broken. She determined someone was in the house and went to get her handgun from her bedroom. She found the hiding intruder and held him at gunpoint while she made him call 911. She then had him lie face down on the floor while she reported the B&E to the dispatcher who stayed on the phone with her until the police arrived. Way to to Leda!
Follow-up to yesterday: This afternoon the Comcast Technician arrived and found two problems, a corroded ground connection outside, and a bad splitter. He replaced the ground and gave us a new tripler splitter. We’re back in business!
O.P.W.
