0:00It's April 14th. This is hard for news today. Local news powered by AI. A homeowner in Groton interrupted a burglar trying to steal dirt bikes from his shed on Monday night and things got wild fast. Just before 1015 PM, the resident spotted the intruder on Knoxville Court and called 911 right away, forcing the guy to bolt. As the suspect ran off, he allegedly fired one shot back at the homeowner, but luckily no one was hit and there were no injuries. The cops swarmed the scene with their criminal investigation team, drone unit, and even a K9 from Monville trained to sniff out gunshot residue, but they haven't nailed down a description or caught the guy yet. The case is still open, so if you heard or saw anything, hit up Groton Town Police at 8604416712. They need those. Tips to lock this down.
