An Anderson resident shot and killed a masked man who broke into her home around midnight after claiming he was the police and demanded money.
The suspect fatally shot was 40-year-old Jeffery Flowers, according to Anderson Police.
“Neighbors had videos of him parking in front of the residence and looking through windows, ultimately breaking through the door and pulling a weapon out,” said Madison County Prosecutor Rodney Cummings. “There was audio, and you could hear what he was saying inside. He said, ‘It’s the police.’ He was claiming to be a police officer, but he had a mask on,” via Fox 59.
Police say the homeowner, after retreating upstairs, fatally shot Flowers; the suspect was found dead in a bedroom by the time police arrived.
