A Colorado woman is facing an attempted murder charge after authorities said she shot an alleged home intruder. Police said Emily Strunk, 25, of Aurora, called 911 after shooting a male intruder who allegedly broke into her apartment.
The initial investigation suggested the intruder, who had a previous relationship with Strunk, forced his way into the apartment and assaulted another man inside, identified as Kevin Wertin. However, new information has been brought forward, leading to Strunk and Wertin’s arrest. Both suspects face one charge of attempted murder in the first degree.
The man who was shot remained in critical condition. His identity was not immediately released.
