Pistol-packing Gen Z woman turns the tables on gun-toting home invaders — and she's deadly accurate

A 23-year-old woman fatally shot a home invasion suspect Wednesday morning in Chicago, WGN-TV reported.

Officers responded just after 6:40 a.m. to a home in the 700 block of North Laramie on the city's west side amid a report of a shooting, the station said.

One of the suspects, an unidentified male, was shot in the chest, WGN reported, adding that he was pronounced dead at Mt. Sinai Hospital.

Police believe two suspects forced their way into the home and displayed firearms, WGN noted, adding that a woman in the home pulled her own gun, and a shootout commenced.

The woman has a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card, the station said.
