A homeowner in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley stabbed a suspect in his mid-20s who broke into his home in the middle of the night this week, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital. After the suspect rammed his way through the front door just after 4 a.m. in the Winnetka neighborhood, he was confronted first by the homeowner’s daughter. Then he got into a fight with the homeowner, who stabbed the intruder in the stomach, police said.
The guy eventually broke the door open,' Joseph Santos, the homeowner's son, who lives nearby, told KABC-TV. 'My dad acted in self-defense. The guy jumped in the room, and they all warded him off. My sisters took a vacuum cleaner and started hitting him over the head.' Another neighbor, Tigran Sargsyan, agreed that 'everybody has a right to defend himself.' 'The suspect was on my property, I heard, at night,' he told the station.
