Homeowner Fires Shots At Home Invaders

DeKalb police say a homeowner fired ‘a few shots’ at two armed men who forced their way into his Field Glen Road home late Thursday night.

The man told police the intruders tied him up and ransacked the house. He was able to call his girlfriend who called 911.

Police say the suspects fled on foot just before officers arrived. As they ran away, the homeowner fired shots at them, but hit no one.

Police say a third male, driving a light colored Impala, may have picked up the fleeing suspects.
