A woman in northern Baltimore County shot and fatally injured an intruder Friday morning at her home in Glen Arm, police said.
The incident occurred shortly before 9 a.m. on the 11500 block of Glen Arm Road, where officers were summoned in response to a burglary.
The homeowner, whose name and age were not made available, told officers that she had surprised a man breaking into her house and that he had fired several shots at her, according to Lt. Robert McCullough, a spokesman for the county police force.
The apparent burglar’s shots missed, McCullough said, and the woman “shot back at the suspect,” striking him.
“He jumped into a black Chevy pickup and fled the area,” the spokesman said.
The man was found later, dead from “multiple gunshot wounds,” in his parked truck behind a restaurant about two miles away.
