Hello guys,
Woman opens fire on THREE armed robbers in her home while her boyfriend sleeps
grabbed his gun, but the matter had already been taken care of This is the moment one brave South African woman grabbed her gun and confronted three armed robbers who had broken into her home and sent them running with two shots - all while her boyfriend slept.
Driekie Croucamp, 39, was woken by a noise and initially thought her boyfriend, Craven Coetzee, was just making food in the kitchen of their Port Elizabeth home. But when she heard it again, she decided to investigate.
That's when Croucamp, gun in hand, went into the hallway and saw a man coming up the stairs.'I think I screamed "freeze!" and all of a sudden he came at me with a knife,' she told the Herald Port Elizabeth.
By the time Croucamp fired a second shot, all three men had jumped out of the window they used to break into the home. The first gun shot woke up Coetzee, who grabbed the revolver he sleeps with every night and ran to check on Croucamp.
Coetzee, 42, then pushed the home's panic button and turned off the lights, in case the men were still nearby and could see inside the home, before making sure the other rooms were clear.
Eastern Cape police spokesperson Alwin Lebans said the men stole Croucamp's purse, which contained an undisclosed amount of cash and her bank cards, he told News24. Lebans said no one was injured in the incident and that the police were investigating a case of robbery and the attempted murder.
