ALABAMA GRANDMA HOLDS SUSPECTED CAR THIEF AT GUNPOINT UNTIL COPS ARRIVE

An Alabama grandmother packing a rifle held off a suspected car thief in her front yard until police arrived Monday.

Marcia Black, 75, said she grabbed her gun when she saw Cameron Powers, an alleged car thief who had been on the run for several hours after crashing a stolen car, walk toward her front porch.

Powers asked her if he could use her phone. When he got closer to her home, Black fired her rifle in the air stop his advance. Two of her four grandchildren were in the home at the time.

“He wouldn’t get down so I shot in the air and he realized I meant business,” she said.
