I like to think this is rare. I wonder what the statistics are for our County?

... there was a Roane County man who had to kill his son in self defense during a violent home invasion. Can't remember the name at present. A few years back there was a killing in which (I believe a relative) a person killed a quite elderly woman in a home invasion. Fortunately it doesn't happen all that often here, but its incidence is generally on the rise based on reports I read.
I also remember a home invasion-robbery in which a very weak woman in her 80s was robbed and shot to death by a 17-year old down in the Blackjack community.
Sometimes a home invasion goes unreported if it is successfully defended against by the invadee, usually by use of either superior force or visible and credible threat of superior force (e.g. drawing a gun but not shooting the invader).
