From Newton County, Georgia<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Authorities are on the hunt for a dangerous armed robber who ambushed a homeowner in his driveway.<\/p>\n

It all happened in a quiet neighborhood in Newton County.<\/p>\n

But homeowner Carlos Wicker had a surprise as well.<\/p>\n

Wicker was armed, was a former police officer, and says he was more than prepared to take on the suspect.<\/p>\n

For 16 years Wicker served as a police officer, so he thinks this would-be robber with a gun messed with the wrong homeowner.<\/p>\n

So on Tuesday, when a robber ambushed him in his driveway at the Riverwalk Farms community off Dearing Road in Newton County just after midnight, he wasn’t worried.<\/p>\n

He says his years of officer training as a former DeKalb County police officer and district attorney investigator, working to take criminals off the street, took over.<\/p>\n

“I pulled my gun, I shot at him and he took off running,” Wicker said.<\/p>\n

Newton County deputies told FOX 5 they’re on the hunt for the robbers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Yakima, Washington<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Two people who forced themselves into a home early Sunday are dead of stab wounds and three people in the home were also stabbed, Yakima police reported.<\/p>\n

Police responded to a home invasion robbery in the 1900 block of South 64th Avenue at about 3:50 a.m., according to a news release. <\/p>\n

Two suspects forced their way inside, authorities said. Once inside, a fight ensued between the family members and the two suspects.<\/p>\n

Three family members were stabbed, as were both suspects. The family members were all transported to an area hospital for treatment, the release noted. Both suspects died at the scene.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Detroit, Michigan<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The home invasion and shooting took place about 2:15 a.m. on the 13000 block of Tacoma, which is south of East State Fair and west of Schoenherr. <\/p>\n

Police say the victim was sitting in his living room when the suspect, a 51-year-old man, barged into the home and fired shots, one of which struck the victim in his face.<\/p>\n

The victim was able to grab a piece of wood and hit the suspect in his head with it. <\/p>\n

The victim was taken to the hospital, where he’s listed in temporary serious condition. <\/p>\n

The suspect ran out of the house, apparently dropping the gun in the process. Police recovered the weapon at the scene. A short time later, police caught up to the suspect at an area hospital and arrested him.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
