69 y.o. widow in Alabama catches guy climbing into her house where he removed window air conditioner. At 3 a.m. She fires three shots from snubby, intruder shows up at local hospital with belly wound, police apprehend him there.
Go Grams!
Picture of her and her gun at the link. Can anyone ID the snubby? Looks like it has a few years on it too.

Looks FIE Titan-ish to me.
Not everyone can afford Glocks, Colts, or S&W's. Looks like it worked for her.
