Colonel Robert Netshiunda, a provincial police spokeswoman, stated: “It is alleged that the woman was at her residence on Ferndale Road when an unknown man broke the kitchen door and entered the house armed with a knife. The victim poured boiling water over the suspect as she screamed for help.”
According to Netshiunda, the suspect ran to the front lawn in pain and died soon after.
Berea police are looking into attempted robbery charges as well as an inquest.
