Wife Saves 3 & 4 Year Old Children

Ten minutes after Suzanne Carson's husband left for work, she went back to bed with her 3-year-old daugther. Shortly thereafter, Carson heard a noise and went to check on her 4-year-old son sleeping down the hall. According to police, to Carson's horror she saw a man tampering with the back door. She loaded a gun and shouted at the man to stop. Unabated, the intruder forced the door open and began to enter. Carson fired a single shot, but the brazen suspect continued his advance. Two more shots, however, and the suspect recognized the folloy of breaking into the home of an armed citizen, and he fled the area. Carson's husband had taken her shooting for the first time just a month prior. "I'm so proud of her for being able to protect herself and the kids," he said. WBIR - Knoxville, TN
