A resident on the couch woke up, grabbed his handgun and fired back. In all, he fired about 10 shots toward the intruders.<\/p>\n<p>The suspects backed away, climbed into a getaway car driven by a third suspect. The resident ran after them and the shootout continued as the suspects sped off. <\/p>\n<p>No injuries were reported.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kaltura.com\/p\/557781\/sp\/55778100\/embedIframeJs\/uiconf_id\/12411302\/partner_id\/557781\"><\/script><object name=\"kaltura_player_1428603135\" id=\"kaltura_player_1428603135\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowScriptAccess=\"always\" allowNetworking=\"all\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" height=\"300\" width=\"500\" data=\"http:\/\/www.kaltura.com\/index.php\/kwidget\/wid\/1_rgpwosfs\/uiconf_id\/12411302\"><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"allowNetworking\" value=\"all\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#000000\" \/><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.kaltura.com\/index.php\/kwidget\/wid\/1_rgpwosfs\/uiconf_id\/12411302\"\/><param name=\"flashVars\" value=\"\"\/><a href=\"http:\/\/corp.kaltura.com\">video platform<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/corp.kaltura.com\/video_platform\/video_management\">video management<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/corp.kaltura.com\/solutions\/video_solution\">video solutions<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/corp.kaltura.com\/video_platform\/video_publishing\">video player<\/a><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Next up is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wcvb.com\/news\/rabid-fox-attacks-boy-in-northborough-yard\/32231348\">Massachusetts<\/a>, believe it or not, where a family was attacked by a real rabid animal;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The fox then attacked and bit Nick Stanley, 18, as he was working outside in a shed in his Hill Street yard Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At that point my wife saw it and ran over and was yelling and it started to go off but then it turned and attacked her, and chased her. She was kind of running backwards kicking and finally fell over and was laying down kicking it,&#8221; said Nick&#8217;s father, Dana Stanley.<\/p>\n<p>The fox backed off again and Nick Stanley&#8217;s mother and two siblings ran to the house.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They said it bit my son. If a rabid animal bites somebody, you need to present the carcass to the state so they can inspect it to determine if it has rabies or not,&#8221; Dana Stanley said.<\/p>\n<p>Fearing for his family, Dana Stanley got his legally-owned gun.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had come to the edge of the deck to try and see where it was and it had started running up after me. My kids were behind me &#8212; between me and the door &#8212; so I had one choice and I put it down right on the back deck of the house,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Local police and the animal control officer came to the house and retrieved the carcass. In less than 24 hours, the state lab determined the fox was rabid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our first story this morning comes from Texas, like many of our stories about good guys &hellip; <a title=\"Friday morning feel good stories\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=59180\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Friday morning feel good stories<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40242,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[218],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59180","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feel-good-stories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59180","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=59180"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59180\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/40242"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=59180"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=59180"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=59180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
