EUREKA SPRINGS, N.C. -- A pregnant mother shot and killed a suspected intruder in her home Tuesday afternoon, authorities said.
Crystal Strickland, 23, who has two young children, was lying on her couch in Cumberland County when she heard a noise and saw a man looking through her window, authorities said. When he began trying to force his way in, she told him she had a gun, and he told her that he also was armed, authorities said.
When the man broke into the home, he and Strickland exchanged gunfire, authorities said. The man later died from his wound, authorities said.
The man's identity hasn't been released.
Strickland was uninjured.
The incident remains under investigation, but authorities said Strickland's gun was legally registered.

Now, had there been a handgun ban in effect here, there is no telling what could have happened to this woman.
