Idaho mom scares off prison escapees
The Lewiston Tribune is reporting that a Cottonwood woman is being honored by the Idaho County Sheriff's Office after she "showed true courage in the face of danger for fending off two prison escapees who tried to break into her home," the AP reports. Cassidy Lockett was home with her young children late last month when two men tried to break into her home. She hid the children behind the couch, grabbed a .22-caliber semiautomatic pistol and aimed it at a man who was already halfway through a window, climbing into her home. She told him to get out or she'd shoot - and he complied, and left along with another man who was trying to get through the locked front door. The sheriff's department says the two were Richard Nieves and Ben Westley Perez, who are both facing escape, burglary and other charges.
