A stick-wielding intruder entered a home in Gainesville, Georgia, on Thursday morning and threatened the homeowner and a child, authorities told the Gainesville Times, adding that the homeowner grabbed a gun and told the intruder he’d shoot if he didn’t get out.
The intruder left the house but wouldn’t leave the yard â so the homeowner fired a shot into the ground, after which the intruder ran into the woods, authorities added to the paper.
What are the details?
The homeowner and his 12-year-old stepdaughter were getting ready for school around 7 a.m. in their Joe Chandler Road home, Hall County sheriffâs office spokeswoman B.J. Williams told the paper.
