Sword swinging in Spokane

SPOKANE — Police say a resident of a north Spokane home drove off four home invaders with a decorative sword, giving one a slash wound.

The home invasion was reported about 3 a.m. today in the Indian Trail area where four people were in the house — two men, a woman and a child. The incident occurred near near Woodridge Drive and Alpine Drive, across from Woodridge Elementary School, KHQ reported.

Police told KHQ one of the occupants recognized at least one of the four suspects and allowed them to enter. More here.

Now, I kind of want to get a decorative sword. Do any of you have a sword hanging around the house? Do you know how to use it?
