A man was shot during a home invasion in Wasilla late Friday night.
Alaska State Troopers and the Wasilla Police Department responded to a home on Fairview Loop after receiving a report of a break-in. According to troopers, the investigation revealed that an intoxicated 66-year-old man forced his way into the home and was carrying an axe. He threatened to kill the resident, a 55-year-old female. The woman in the home shot the man with the axe, according to troopers.
