75-Year-Old Woman Defends Herself Against Thieves

A couple of thieves in Akron picked the wrong house to rob, ONN Affiliate WEWS reports.

75-year-old Eleanor Lynn saw strangers coming inside her house and took action.

She pulled out her chrome-plated automatic pistol that she calls, “The Peacemaker,” and the thieves ran away.

Neighbor Loleta Gill knew that the strangers were up to no good when she saw them walking slowly in front of her neighbor’s house at around 10 a.m.

“They stopped and I was looking out the kitchen window and I could see they kept looking at the house and everything,” Gill said.

Within minutes, the thieves were at the front door of Lynn’s home.

Lynn said that she keeps her gun in her chair with her. After pulling out the gun, the thieves saw it and quickly left the premises.

She called the police and they caught the thieves a short time later.
