Woman says she shot ex-boyfriend after break-in



A woman told police she shot her ex-boyfriend Friday morning, but officers were unable to find any trace of the victim.



Shortly after 11 a.m., Knoxville Police Department officers were dispatched to an East Glenwood Avenue address after a woman called 911 and said a man had kicked open her front door and entered the house.



When officers arrived, the man was gone. The woman then told police that the intruder was her ex-boyfriend. After the man broke into the house and kicked in the bedroom door, the woman shot him, she told police.



Officers checked several locations but were unable to find the man, said KPD Sgt. Tom Fox.



The investigation is continuing, and charges are pending against the male suspect, Fox said.
