SC: Homeowner Disarms Intruder who points Shotgun at Him

Platts says he discovered a man crouched in his laundry room, pointing a shotgun directly at him early Saturday morning.

He says he doesn't remember anything that went through his head before he lunged at the intruder...except for one thing.

Within seconds, Platts says he was able to pry the shotgun from the intruder's hands.

"I called for my wife and she took the shotgun out of my hand," he said.

Their daughter, 17 years old, was the one who called police while wife Carrie Platts held the shotgun at the intruder. They say he broke in through their doggy door.
