Police: Home invasion turns deadly for suspect when homeowner shoots him
ORANGE COUNTY, IN (WAVE) - A home invasion suspect ended up dead in rural
Orange County after encountering the homeowners.
According to Indiana State Police, Jacob Grimes, 23, of Paoli entered a home in the 7900 block of South County Road 700 East in Hardinsburg around 1 a.m. on Nov. 25. The homeowners, brothers Barry Frost, 59, and Terah Frost, 61, heard the break-in and moved their mother, 86-year-old Yvonne Frost, into a bedroom to protect her
The brothers went downstairs to try to locate the intruder but couldn't find anyone, so they began looking for tools to repair damage done to the door.

As Barry Frost opened a cellar door, he encountered Grimes who punched him
and engaged him in a physical altercation, police said. Terah Frost entered the
room and observed Grimes, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, a bandana over his face
and in possession of a knife, fighting with his brother. Terah shot Grimes with
a handgun.
Grimes was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy was performed later in the day in Bedford. Charges are not expected to be filed against Terah Frost.
Well done, Frost brothers. Well done. Grimes was a thug and if he hadn't broken into their house, he wouldn't have gotten shot and killed. If more people were like the Frost brothers, and if the media reported these types of news stories, maybe home invasions might happen a little less.
