Posted: May 03, 2017 4:45 PM CDTUpdated: May 03, 2017 4:45 PM CDT

Austin Lodge

CLARKSBURG -A Weston man was arrested Wednesday after police said he attempted to rob a hotel in Clarksburg.

Austin Lodge, 24, went into the Sutton Inn on Emily Drive at approximately 2 a.m. and demanded money from the clerk, according to the Clarksburg Police Department.

The clerk told police that Lodge, who was wearing a black hoodie, jeans with sequins, and earrings, covered his face and said, "Don't make me pull my piece."

The clerk then pulled a firearm, police said, and Lodge ran toward Kroger without taking anything from the hotel.

Lodge was found at the Sleep Inn and was arrested on a first-degree robbery charge.

I'm glad the innocent hotel clerk was able to foil this robbery attempt.

MAN SHOOTS AT INTRUDERS WHO FORCED YOUNG KIDS ON THE FLOOR IN NW HOUSTON

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) --
A homeowner fights back after a violent confrontation with three men attempting to pull off a home invasion.

One of the suspects was shot in the head, while two others are still on the run.

Police rushed to the scene on Cliffmarshall in northwest Houston, where this all unfolded as a man returned home from work overnight.

WATCH: Bullet holes found on suspects' abandoned truck



The truck the suspects fled in was found riddled with bullet holes.

Investigators said three men forced their way into the man's home, where his wife and two young children ages 5 and 6 years old were inside.

The homeowner was pistol whipped and his family was forced to lie down on the floor.

The men were looking to rob the victim, but police said at some point the homeowner was able to get his own gun out to defend his family.

There was an exchange of gunfire, and the suspects drove off in a pickup truck.

That truck was abandoned at an apartment complex a few miles away on West Montgomery Road. Our crews got video of that truck, and it is riddled with bullet holes.

Glad the homeowner was able to drive them off before they harmed his family.

Jacksonville police: Woman shoots intruder who followed her home, forced his way in

A woman thwarted an apparent home-invasion robbery Wednesday morning by shooting her would-be assailant in the area of the 1600 block of North Myrtle Street, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.

The suspect trailed the woman to her home in the Durkeeville neighborhood just before 10 a.m., then forced his way inside, according to police. When he tried to rob her, she grabbed a gun and shot him once in the torso, police said.

The wounded man fled the scene, then called 911 and was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said. A few minutes later another call to police reported an attempted home-invasion robbery nearby. The caller told dispatchers she had shot a suspect, police said.

Investigators discovered the shooting victim was connected to the home invasion and he was taken into custody at the hospital, police said.
