Default Woman Shot Dead While Calling 911

This is why you call 911 AFTER you shoot the intruder. A gun in the hand is worth 20 police officers a block away

Wow--what a bummer. I feel real bad for the husband.
If she had been armed --she may still be alive.
I'm glad my wife is armed when I'm gone

Do not know what to say feel really bad for the family, hope they track the punks down before they do something else stupid, or choose someone less defenseless and ready for their next try.

that is really too bad. I agree if she was armed it might have had a different outcome.

My prayers go out to the family, its sad.... I can't emagine how the 911 dispatcher felt, hearing the shots, and then silence, I stay at home alone most days, This situation is why I carry every day, You never know, its better to be ready, than not,

That's really sad.

That really hurts that so many people feel no need to be armed. I wish only the best for her family.

A gun is great, but it sounds like they may have needed some better locks as well.
