Oriental homeowner fires shot in overnight break-in
ORIENTAL, N.C. - An early morning break-in attempt ends with a shot fired and police looking for three men.
Oriental Police tell us that around 3:30 this morning Jesse Cahoon was asleep at his home on South Avenue Street in Oriental when he heard the door being kicked in.

More here: http://www2.wnct.com/news/2010/oct/08/oriental-homeowner-awakened-overnight-break--ar-443707/

Three to one odds, one shot fired, goblins run, another use of a firearm for protection.

8. Yeah, I was wrongfooted as well. Mind you, "South Avenue Street"?
Is it an avenue or is it a street? Make up your minds, Orientals!

14. That's like the headline a couple of years ago "Jew accused of embezzlement"
Referring to a Bay Area politician named Ed Jew (who is of Chinese descent).
