The intruder, identified as 31-year-old Kenneth Fish, began running
through the house as the owner retrieved an unloaded rifle. Fish ran out
a sliding door but stopped on the patio when the woman cocked the gun.
According to a police report, Fish begged them to let him go, but the
residents instructed him to empty his pockets and lie down with his
hands behind his head while they called police.
