At 70-years-young, the woman, only identified as "Bonnie," told various news outlets that there is nothing she wouldn't do to protect her family.
“Nobody hurts my family. I don't care who you are. I will go after you,” Bonnie told NECN following the incident.
Around 3:30 a.m. Sunday morning, the man apparently entered the Manchester home through a kitchen window. He went to the refrigerator, made himself a snack, and made his way to the bathroom to take off all of his clothes.
Bonnie said she woke up when she heard someone walking up her stairs to the second floor, where her grandson was sleeping.
“When I got into the hallway, this man is standing there butt naked and I’m saying, ‘Who are you? How did you get here? Get out of my house! Get out of my house!’ He wouldn’t leave. He just stood there,” Bonnie told WHDH-TV. "When I got the bat, he turned and he ran. Then I got downstairs and he sort of launched at me and I was like, ‘Oh no you don’t! Not in my home!’ and that’s when I hit him with the bat."
Bonnie said she aimed at "vital areas" and apparently connected with a solid impact, as the man was last seen crawling toward the first-floor bathroom to get some of his clothes before fleeing the house.
The suspect, described as a Hispanic man in his mid-to-late 20s with long dark hair, did leave his pants behind, which, of course, had his wallet inside them.
Police said they are working to identify and arrest the man, although no arrests have been made yet.
