And home invasions are not just about a group of people breaking down the door like a swat team. You end up with all sorts of deceitful methods like this one....
Woman foils home invasion, repels intruder
PARK RIDGE - A woman thwarted a home invasion Tuesday afternoon when she pushed a would-be robber off her porch, police said.
Holding a package and a clipboard, the man knocked at the woman's door on Kevin Court about 2 p.m. Tuesday, said Capt. Joseph Madden.
Assuming he was a deliveryman, she opened the door to let him in. But he pulled out a handgun, Madden said.
The woman immediately "jumped" him, pushing him down three or four porch steps, and both of them fell outside, Madden said.
Dropping his gun on the lawn, the assailant ran off and got into a red van driven by an accomplice. The vehicle was last seen headed west on Rock Avenue.
"She was very shaken up," Madden said. "I guess she must have been in good shape if she overpowered him and threw him down the stairs.
"It's definitely something we were very impressed with."
This part makes me sick though
At the same time, Madden cautioned against people trying to take such matters into their own hands.
"At this point I think she reacted and it worked out well for her," he said. "In the future, we never recommend for people to fight their assailant."
In other words, just lay down and submit to whatever atrocities and brutalities the criminal has in mind for you. don't fight back. I hate idiot law enforcement.
