Armed homeowner sends would-be home invaders running for their lives: video

Three armed and masked suspects who tried to kick open the door of a home in Washington state scurried away when the homeowner fended off the apparent home invasion attempt with gunfire, video shows. 

“Seattle police,” one of the masked individuals is heard yelling before landing a kick on the home’s door, according to the video.

The Auburn Police Department said that at about 2 a.m. Thursday, officers responded to a home over reports of a non-injury shooting. Auburn is located nearly 30 miles south of Seattle and 15 miles northeast of Tacoma.
