Granny Bags a Burglar

"Margaret Summey credits God -- and her .357 Magnum -- with protecting her
from a burglar Thursday. Police say Summey, a 64-year-old widow, shot
43-year-old Timothy Doyle Huitt after he broke into her McGill Drive home.
After being shot, Huitt fled through Summey's yard, leaving a trail of blood
that led from her home to nearby Berry Shoals Road, where he collapsed. 'I
did what I had to do. That's what the police told me. I protected myself,'
Summey said. . . . "(Upon hearing the burglar) I went straight and got the
.357 Magnum,' she said. 'I would have used a shotgun, but I had just had
new countertops done and I didn't want to tear up the kitchen.'"
