Homeowner’s baseball bat handy in halting home invasion in Abbotsford, B.C.
ABBOTSFORD, B.C. — A feisty homeowner in Abbotsford, B.C., made quick work of what could have been a home invasion.
Abbotsford Police Const. Ian Macdonald says the man, in his 60s, answered a knock on his door just before 6:30 Tuesday night and was confronted by a man trying to push his way into the house.
Macdonald says the homeowner grabbed a baseball bat near the door and gave the intruder a swat across the chest.
The resident and a woman in her 70s then held the intruder until police arrived.
