April 4 or better at about 1:30AM april 5th, I woke up to a bit of unusual noise...went next door, Dianas bedroom, she was sound asleep...more noise, from downstairs...My house is a bit of a fortress. Thermopane double glasss windows all around and the three doors into the house are steel doors with double glass slider windows. Double locks on the rear door as well.
In any case,more loud crashing noise at the back door. Glass breaking. I grabbed a short pointed shovel from the fireplace next to the door, opended the door and was face to face with a 6 foot plus intruder..
In any case...Diana yelled "I have a gun....get your hands up and keep them up" etc, as she called 911 for the police,
I held this creep at bay with a shovel until the cops grabbed and cuffed this individual....
the fellow was convicted of break and enter...restitution..to pay for my broken rear door window...turned out to be native ( canadian indian)
...more bad news...after fixing the riding mower...i left a battery charger and booster kit unattended at the front door...and it was gone, another 200 bucks theft..that's what you get when you own a home on a main highway...
