A good example of why people shouldn't just have a firearm in the house but should carry it on their person. Having a shotgun in your bedroom closet or a handgun in your nightstand isn't going to do you any good in this kind of situation. Unfortunately there are a lot of people out there who get caught up in a false sense of security simply by having a gun in the home even if it's not nearby when you need it.
