78 year old Granny holds intruder at gunpoint in Washington while home alone

SPANAWAY, Wash. (KIRO) - An intruder was in for a surprise when he was interrupted by a gun-toting grandmother in Washington.

“At the moment I was scared to death, I really was,” Sandy, who did not provide a last name, said. She knew something was wrong when her dog, Booboo, started barking nonstop on Sunday night.

When she went to investigate, Sandy found herself face-to-face with a man trying to break in.

“And we looked at each for a few minutes and he turned and started to leave,” Sandy said, but the 78-year-old wasn’t about to let him get away.

“And I said, ‘Oh, no you don’t. You stay right there.’ And I reached over and got my shotgun and I cocked it and I told him to stay right there because he was going to turn and walk away,” she said.

“Told him to go out, sit on the steps. I followed him out. And when he got to the bottom of the steps I told him to sit down and I just stood here with the shotgun waiting for the police to come.”
