Liberty, Pennsylvania

From the June 21, 2006 Evening Sun:
After he was discovered, a Carroll Valley man who allegedly entered a residence without permission Monday hopped in his vehicle, drove toward the home's owner and was greeted with two shotgun blasts, police said.

Liberty Township Police on Monday arrested Anthony Joseph Sitts, 37, for criminal trespass following the 9:23 p.m. incident in the 100 block of Gordon Road.

Police said Sitts went onto the Gordon Road property and entered the house without permission. He walked into the garage and started banging on the door to the house, said Chief James Holler of the Liberty Township Police.

The homeowner, who was not identified by police, exited the front of the residence, and when Sitts saw him, the suspect got into his 1992 Chevrolet Blazer and drove in the direction of the homeowner.

The homeowner used a shotgun to fire two shots at Sitts' vehicle, police said. The first shot hit the driver side door and the second, fired as Sitts was turning toward the homeowner, hit the rear of the car and knocked out the rear windows, Holler said.
