British police arrested a 78-year-old man after he allegedly stabbed and killed an armed intruder who broke into his home early Wednesday morning, The Guardian reported.

Two men broke into Richard Osborn-Brooks’ home in Hither Green, southeast London, just after midnight, according to police. One of the men, Henry Vincent, 37, armed with a screwdriver forced the elderly man into the kitchen where a struggle broke out.

During the fight, Osborn-Brooks stabbed the burglar in the upper body. The homeowner suffered minor injuries, police said.

Vincent’s accomplice was in another part of the home when the fight occurred, but he did drag Vincent outside and left him for dead on the pavement before he fled the scene.
