18 Year-Old Widowed Mother of a 3 Month Old Shoots Burgler Who Charges at Her with a Knife!

This is an unbelievable story. It's unbelievable how much evil there is in the world that a person would try to take advantage of a widow with a young child. Unbelievable that the widow is 18 years old. Unbelievable that she was able to defend herself and her child the way she did. I'm glad that her and the infant are OK. The entire story is interesting, so read the whole thing.

911 Tells Mom 'Do What You Have To Do': Okla. Mom Sarah McKinley Kills Intruder Justin Martin

A teenage mother shot and killed an intruder after a 911 operator said she was allowed to defend her infant son and herself with force.

Sarah McKinley, 18, killed Justin Martin with a single gunshot wound on New Year's Eve when he forced his way into her Blanchard, Okla. home and came at her with a long hunting knife, ABC News reports.

The deadly encounter occurred about a week after the young mom's husband died of cancer, according to TV station KOCO. Martin darkened McKinley's door on the day of her husband's funeral, several days before the shooting. He claimed he was a neighbor who wanted to say hello, but she didn't open the door.

Martin returned with an accomplice on Dec. 31, and they tried to force their way into the modest house. When McKinley heard the men trying to break in, she called 911.

She also holed up in her bedroom with a 12-gauge shotgun and a pistol, while she put a bottle in her three-month-old son's mouth.
