Thompson says two men were staying in their home, visiting her boyfriend from Georgia.
The men got in an argument outside where one of them stabbed the other.
Thompson says the man who did the stabbing kicked in their house door aiming and threatening her and her boyfriend with the same knife.
Thompson says her boyfriend told the man to leave at least three times but he refused. She says that’s when her boyfriend grabbed his gun and shot the guy in self-defense.
“I have three little kids, one, two, four,” said Thompson. "Of course, you know, I’m trying to get back to my room to make sure that they don’t get hurt .”
Authorities have not shared the condition or the names of the men involved.
