Residents of an Indiana apartment building fought back against an armed male intruder who had broken in one morning in late October. They disarmed the man and held him until police arrived to take him into custody.

In the early hours of Oct. 27, at around 3:25 a.m., Kokomo Police Department (KPD) received a 911 call from The Annex apartments on Kokomo’s S. Washington Street. Officers arrived at the scene and found three male tenants holding the suspect at gunpoint.
