Shotgun blast deters burglar



An unidentified intruder was greeted with a blast from a shotgun following a foiled burglary attempt at 2 a.m. in the 1500 block of West Seventh Street.



According to a police report, the home was occupied by a woman and her two sons. The residents were awakened by a loud noise. A 13-year-old resident grabbed his father's shotgun and entered the room. He fired a shot at the intruder who took off running from the scene.



Police did not discover any blood trails leading from the residence or any reports of gunshot injuries at the local hospital.



The home sustained a broken window.
