A 74-year-old Texas grandmother always keeps a gun nearby, and that decision proved to be a an important one Sunday night, when a criminal broke into her home.

Rebbie Roberson, 74, was just about to watch the news Sunday night when someone wearing gloves and a mask broke into her home.

“And when I started to get up, he was in here on me with a gun facing me right to my face.”

What she did next took the gunman by surprise.

Now, Bowie County Sheriff’s deputies are looking for the would-be bandit.

“So I had to walk right out in front of him,” Roberson said as she recalled the harrowing encounter. “I didn’t know if he was going to kill me or what.”

“I reached over there and grabbed this gun. And when I swerved around, I pointed it at him and he ran.”

With her .38-caliber pistol in hand, Roberson said she followed him, all the while firing her gun and leaving bullet holes in the walls of her home.

“I’m not sure I didn’t hit him. I don’t know yet. I sure tried. I sure was hoping.

“That was the scare of my life.”
