So this morning around 4:00am I come home and sneak in past the dog so I wont wake everyone up ( I'm only 21 and still in school so I live with my parents.) I get up to my room and settle in to go to bed, I start checking my email and such before I go to bed. At around 4:30 am my little sisters Pomeranian just goes bezerk, the only time I ever hear the dog bark like that is when I'm sneaking into the house, so I grab my trusty 870 snd quietly make my way downstairs. As I come to the bottom of the steps I hear someone trying to jimmy my front door, so i barricade myself behind the bar in my kitchen pointing the muzzle at the door. Just then thedoor slowly opens, I illuminate the BG with my surefire forend and yell out to him DON'T MOVE. He puts up his hands and I tell him to lay on his stomach. My dad hears the comotion and comes barreling down the steps with his model 29 and I tell him to call the police. the sheriff shows up with five patrol cars andtake him away. Apparently they think this guy has burglarized 5 homes in my rural community. The police thanked me for a job well done and hualed him away.
Is there anything I couldve done better? I try to practice such scenarios. I'm just glad noone was hurt!
