Here’s a daily dose of “WTF” for you.

From KOMO 4 TV, Seattle:
When Susan Kuhnhausen returned home from work earlier this month, she encountered an intruder wielding a claw hammer. After a struggle, the 51-year-old nurse fended off her attacker by strangling him to death with her bare hands. [ Full Story ]

Now, investigators say they’ve found that the man wasn’t the burglar they originally thought he was - but a hitman hired by Kuhnhausen’s ex-husband, who is now in jail on $500,000 bail. Police say she acted in self-defense and that the husband gave the hired killer the codes to disarm the home’s alarm system. Michael Kuhnhausen denies involvement.

Just… holy crap. A 51-year-old wrestles away the weapon, and then strangles a hitman to death with her bare hands? Hardcore!
