[Southfork Subdivision]

There were lots of police and DEA cars in the Southfork subdivision on Saturday night, anyone hear why? This subdivision is just North of the 120/92 intersection and the incident was in the first entrance, approx. 3 houses in....

[10-50, 10-60.....10-33 STATION 2]

Wanted to add my account...I have a friend who lives across the street from where this happened and here's what she says occurred..

 

The woman was home alone, car in the garage so the man didn't think anyone was home. Apparently he and a female accomplice had been casing the neighborhood and decided on this house to break in. The lady heard him come in and ran to her bedroom, grabbed her gun and hid in her bathroom hoping he would go away so she wouldn't have to hurt him. He ended up coming into her bedroom so she came out and shot him twice in the chest. He started screaming 'don't shoot me!' and ran down the hall, she shot again and missed him and he ran out of the house. He was captured but the female accomplice was, at the time I heard this, still on the loose.

 

I was driving home when this happened, along 92, and saw all the commotion. The life flight landed at the Winn Dixie that is closed on the corner of 92 and 120. The life flight said Emory on the side but I heard they ended up taking him somewhere else.

 

I feel a little better knowing he didn't knowingly break in to an occupied house, he thought no one was home. Our sleepy little town is growing a little too much for my liking. That said, I would have shot hime before he made it to my bedroom, he would have been met at the door with a 357.

 

Still waiting to hear more on the news about this, apparently Paulding doesn't rate very high on the news front.
