From Las Vegas, Nevada<\/a>;<\/p>\n

A central valley homeowner shot and killed an intruder Wednesday morning, Las Vegas police said.<\/p>\n

Police were called at 11 a.m. to the 2800 block of Hermosa Street, near East Sahara Avenue and Maryland Parkway, Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Larry Hadfield said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Santa Cruz County, California<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The woman, identified as 32-year-old Samantha Vetter, broke into a home in Ben Lomond on Monday afternoon and stole multiple firearms, investigators said, according to KSBW.
\nWhen deputies arrived, Vetter sped away in a stolen Lexus, abandoning her pet dog, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff\u2019s Office said. <\/p>\n

Later that day, another deputy spotted the Lexus in downtown Boulder Creek, and authorities again gave chase.
\n“The deputy continued to pursue the woman until he lost sight of her,” the sheriff\u2019s news release said.
\nOfficials searched for the vehicle and waited at nearby intersections, but didn\u2019t catch a glimpse of it.
\nThat is, until evening.
\nThat\u2019s when residents on Branciforte Drive in the Santa Cruz area reported a silver Lexus blocking a driveway, police said.
\nA woman was walking door to door asking residents to not call the police. She was also asking for gas, officials said.
\nWhen police arrived in the neighborhood, they found a 45-year-old man named Chad Tartala by the Lexus, according to the release. He told authorities that the woman he was with was up the driveway looking for gasoline.
\nInside the Lexus, officials found stolen property from the earlier burglary, police said.
\nMeanwhile, officials made a reverse 911 call to residents, asking them to shelter in place “because of the public safety threat Samantha represented,” the news release said.
\nOther neighbors began calling 911 to report that they saw a woman trying to get into parked cars in the area.
\nOne of the residents who received the reverse 911 call saw Vetter climb over his driveway\u2019s fence and walk toward his house, police said.
\nThe man armed himself with a handgun and shouted at Vetter to stop, but “she continued toward him, challenging him to shoot her,” according to the news release.
\n“Finally, fearing for his and his family\u2019s safety, the resident fired a single warning shot into the soft dirt in front of his porch,” the news release said.
\nVetter then followed the resident\u2019s commands to lay flat on the ground, and deputies arrived and arrested her.
\nVetter, who is homeless and from the San Lorenzo Valley, was arrested on suspicion of burglary, vehicle theft, evading a peace officer, carrying a loaded firearm, being a felon in possession of a firearm and violating probation, the Santa Cruz Sentinel reported.
\nTartala, the man who was with Vetter, was arrested on suspicion of narcotics and stolen property charges, police said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Toledo, Ohio<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Police tell the Toledo Blade the suspected domestic incident occurred around noon. The neighbor reportedly saw the suspect, Bernard Neyland, 59, of Toledo, attacking the victim with an ax in a pickup truck.<\/p>\n

According to WTVG Channel 13, police say Benjamin Hand, 29, came out of his home and shot Neyland.<\/p>\n

“I heard this lady screaming,” an unidentified neighbor tells WTVG. “She was saying, ‘Help me! He’s killing me! He’s killing me!'”<\/p>\n

Neyland was taken to University of Toledo Medical Center but died of his wounds, the Blade reports.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Chicago, Illinois<\/a>;<\/p>\n

[Kinta] Harris wrote a robbery note at a nearby library, then walked into the MB Financial Bank branch about 9 a.m. at 3030 E. 92nd St., went straight to a teller and slid the note on the counter, the complaint said.
\nWhen the teller started to put cash into his bag, Harris told them to hurry before he hurt someone, and motioned to his hip to suggest he had a gun, according to the complaint.
\nWhen he was walking out, a bank security guard who had found Harris to be suspicious confronted him and told him he couldn\u2019t leave with the money, the complaint said.<\/p>\n

Harris didn\u2019t give him the money and instead ran off, according to the complaint. The guard chased after him and fired a single shot, striking Harris in the leg. Harris kept running.
\nChicago police officers later saw a man who matched Harris\u2019 description near 90th Street and Escanaba, the complaint said.
\nThey arrested Harris, and took him to the University of Chicago Medical Center for treatment.
\nWhile in custody, he admitted to the robbery and confirmed he was the man wearing a wig, reading glasses and a long black coat in surveillance pictures, the complaint said. He told officers he had been fired from his job in October and needed money to pay his bills, including parking tickets.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Wisner, Nebraska<\/a>;<\/p>\n

A Wisner family wakes up to an intruder and quickly take action.
\nPolice say, on the 24th of May, Jaben Sateren broke into a home in Cuming County.<\/p>\n

The break-in was anything, but typical.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because he was not wearing any clothes.<\/p>\n

The homeowner, Brook Anderson, grabbed his gun and shot the intruder in the leg twice and held him at gunpoint until officers arrived.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
