A Pennsylvania woman shot and killed a man who entered her home during the night by breaking a window. Beaver County District Attorney Nate Bible said the woman heard noises in the basement and went downstairs to investigate, bringing her 9 mm pistol with her for protection. That is when she came face to face with the threatening stranger. In fear for her life, the woman shot the man, killing him. District Attorney Bible told a reporter that she did nothing wrong. “… In that situation from a legal standpoint … she did nothing wrong,” as Pennsylvania follows the "Castle Doctrine," which means a person's home can be defended by deadly force to protect against an intruder. Bible said he does not believe authorities will request criminal charges. "If someone enters your house, they are making that conscious decision,” he told a reporter. “They are there to steal from you or hurt you in other ways. You have that right to protect yourself and use deadly force.” (cbsnews.com; Pittsburgh, PA; 4/18/24)
