Video shows woman exchanging gunfire with burglars during home invasion
GWINNETT COUNTY, Georgia -- Startling security video shows a woman shooting at three men during a home burglary in Georgia.
One suspect died, and police are still looking for the other two suspects.
The video shows the men break through the door to the home with their guns drawn.
The woman then rushed from her bedroom and started firing her gun. She exchanged gunfire with the suspects, and the video shows drywall debris clouding the home. One man rushed through a glass door.
"It's not common that we receive this caliber of surveillance video showing the crime unfold," said Gwinnett County Cpl. Deon Washington.
The man who died was shot in the torso. Police are now trying to find out if the home was specifically targeted.
