A woman in Yukon, Okla., defended herself when an intruder allegedly broke into her home on Feb. 27, 2022.
Sometime earlier the previous evening, the woman and her ex-boyfriend had an argument, and she wasn't expecting him to pay a visit. However, he did sometime before 4 a.m. early that Sunday morning, when he arrived at the residence and forced his way through a window. He then confronted the woman and began to attack her physically, shoving her down onto the ground several times.
As she was attacked by her ex-boyfriend, the woman managed to pull out a pistol she had on her person at the time, aimed and fired a single shot. The shot hit the assailant and incapacitated him. The woman the called authorities, who arrived a short time later and discovered the 23-year-old ex-boyfriend with a gunshot wound to the stomach. He was pronounced as deceased once taken to the hospital. (kfor.com, Oklahoma City, Okla., 03/01/2022)
