An 85-year-old woman from Springhill Township, PA. put fear aside, grabbed her gun and kicked a would-be burglars a**. Grandma did this all from inside her home, she then forced the burglar to call police while she kept him in her sights according to the police.
“I just walked right on past him to the bedroom and got my gun,” Leda Smith said.Oh, OK Leda, My Bad.
It all started when Leda heard someone break into her home Sunday afternoon. She grabbed the .22-caliber revolver she had been keeping by her bed since a neighbor’s home was burglarized a few weeks ago.
“I said ‘What are you doing in my house?’ He just kept saying he didn’t do it,” Leda said. After she forced the 17-year-old boy to call 911, Leda kept kept holding the gun on him until state police arrived at her home in Springhill Township, about 45 miles south of Pittsburgh.The boy will be charged with attempted burglary and related offenses in juvenile court, Trooper Christian Lieberum said. He was not identified because of his age.
“It was exciting,” Smith said. “I just hope I broke up the (burglary) ring because they have been hitting a lot of places around here.”
