The following is supposedly a true story. To be included, besides
being true, the story is most likely strange, weird, surprising, or
funny.
St. Paul, MN
The hit movie "Home Alone" about a boy thwarting burglars with
imaginative mayhem, wasn't total fantasy. Just ask the guy who tried
to break in while 13-year-old Ryan Hendrickson was home alone.
Ryan was watching television Wednesday night when he heard a noise
that sounded like a window screen being cut.
"I ran to the closet and grabbed a bat," Ryan said Thursday. "I
went...into the dining room, where I saw him cutting the window with
a knife. He put his left hand in first and I was waiting for his
right hand to come in...and I took the baseball bat and I hit him as
hard as I could."
The man ran. Ryan called 911.
Police, while cautioning Ryan to call 911 first next time, did enjoy
the fact that the kid got in the first lick against a bad guy.
