RGR 4-78 sends us a link to a different kind of home defense story from Sunapee, New Hampshire<\/a>;<\/p>\n

[80-year-old former Marine] Elsie Dabrowski went out to her chicken coop Sunday night as she does every night around dusk, closed up the coop and bent down to cut weeds with a sickle, said her son, Gene Dabrowski.<\/p>\n

The [bobcat] lunged at Elsie, bit her left cheek, scratched her throat and bit her back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI kept thinking why? Why is it attacking me? It attacked me for no reason. I thought, \u2018Why, why,\u2019\u201d said Elsie, a former Marine, on Monday evening.<\/p>\n

Elsie beat the cat off her with the sickle, and Gene\u2019s five dogs chased it under a nearby porch. He lives only 300 feet away in a separate house, heard the commotion, rushed to the scene and killed the animal with two blasts of a shotgun.<\/p>\n

On Monday afternoon, state health officials informed the Dabrowskis that the bobcat was rabid, Gene said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A good Samaritan story from Indianapolis, Indiana<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Officers were called to a residence in the 3400 block of East 26th Street, near North Olney Street, just before 11:30 a.m. It was initially believed that two people had been shot.<\/p>\n

The female suspect, identified as Camille Wilson, 32, came to the house and met with the victim, who is also a woman. Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) Sgt. Frank Wooten said a fight broke out at the home, and at least two shots were fired. One of the shots hit the victim inside the home.<\/p>\n

A man who was there at the time tackled the suspect in the front yard and held her until police arrived. The suspect may have been pistol-whipped during the takedown. Both were taken to Eskenazi Health. The victim was in critical but stable condition.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Jefferson County, Alabama<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Three people were shot at about 10 a.m. at the Black Diamond Paving on Old Jasper Highway. According to the report, an employee at Black Diamond Paving began investigating a car that was parked nearby. A man inside the car opened fire, striking the employee, who managed to return fire.<\/p>\n

One of the three who were shot during the incident is believed to be a suspect in what might have been a robbery gone wrong. He had been struck in the chest and was pronounced dead at the scene. A second was shot in the side and fled on foot but was captured shortly.<\/p>\n

The third who was shot was found walking close to the business and was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
