A Portland mother of two shot an intruder after returning home to find him in one of her children's rooms.
The woman, 33, found a stranger in the bedroom of one of her children about 1:45 a.m. PT Sunday. Police said the victim came home with her children ages 5 and 10, and armed with a handgun, she shot and killed the unknown 59-year-old man.
Police said the woman is cooperating with investigators and was not arrested. The investigation will determine whether she acted in self defense and whether she will face charges.
Authorities say once the investigation is complete, it will be presented to the Multnomah County District Attorney's Office for review.
An autopsy will be conducted Monday. The name of the man will not be released until his family is notified, police said.
