And i was like, the first person to come through here. Im hitting. Going out fighting. I want to try. The boy could hear the voices of two men in the hallway. They eventually started banging on the door. It felt like they were trying to get in. He says he started cursing at the intruders, using every bad word he could think of. Then i could hear all of a sudden, another set of footsteps. In the upstairs. Start running. And then, eventually, i heard. You know. She has a gun. And then, the boy heard a series of gunshots. A breathless , dialed 911. Someone came to my house and my mom up. But the boy was saying was Something Like out of a movie. As first for the Small Town Police department.
