“Tonya Beck saw a stranger climbing over the back fence of her Kansas City home early on August 4th. The night before, two men had attempted to break into her home and were chased away by her dog. Beck grabbed her .22 pistol and confronted the third invader. When the stranger lunged at Beck, she fired a shot at him, which missed but was sufficient to drive him away. Police arrived shortly thereafter. One of the officers told her that she had done the right thing. Yet the 57-year-old woman has been issued a criminal summons for discharging her weapon in self-defense.”
