Just a quickie note about some interesting news today.
My wife's friend called her today to tell her about some sad news about here sister.
This happened yesterday March 4, 2014.
She lives in a nice neighborhood.
She was getting ready to go to work. She ate breakfast and was on her way to take a quick shower and her doorbell rang.
She did not answer her doorbell because she was running a bit late and went upstairs to take a shower.
When she walked back downstairs to her main floor she found a stranger in her living room.
She did confront him and a fight ensued between the intruder and herself. (she does keep a registered gun; but it was in her bedroom).
She was able to drag him out the yard door screaming the whole time.
He had a "toy" gun and had beaten her head with it causing much injuries.
I am really surprised at the energy that she had doing what she did after being head butted with a toy gun.
Neighbors heard her screaming and called the local police department. They did find him running (well by helicopter) and arrested him.
She is still in the hospital recouping from her head injuries.
Would a good security system with central station monitoring helped in this situation?
Would self monitoring a DIY alarm system helped in this situation?
