An armed intruder reportedly broke into a woman’s house — and while she wasn’t able to brandish her own firearm, she was able to disable him with a pot of hot cooking grease.
The incident took place on Thursday in Decatur, Alabama, when Larondrick Macklin, armed with a pistol, entered the home that reportedly belonged to his ex-girlfriend.
Macklin, 31, reportedly burglarized the unnamed woman’s home, and caused a domestic disturbance. To fend him off, the woman reportedly threw hot cooking grease in his face. When police arrived at the scene, Macklin was still there, and had apparently suffered extensive burning to his face.
