A homeowner fended off an intruder who kicked in her front door Monday night when she shot at him with a handgun, police said.
The woman was home alone in the 1800 block of North Owasso Avenue when the man rang her doorbell several times about 11:45 p.m. The noise startled the woman and she grabbed a .357-caliber pistol, police said.
The man then broke into the house and the woman fired a single shot. She missed and the burglar fled, according to police.
