A Virginia family is reeling after a terrifying first night in their new home. They told police that a naked woman wearing a blue ponytail broke in, attacked the family, and claimed to be the devil.
The house in Chesterfield County is now in a state of disarray, with bullet-riddled walls, blood-soaked carpets, and broken windows. The home invasion occurred around 10:30 p.m. on Independence Day, when the woman allegedly entered the home through the basement.
The husband in the Lewis family, who declined to appear on camera to
local media and whose first name was not reported, said the woman claimed to be Satan.
“I said, ‘Who are you?” he explained. “She said, ‘I need your help, please help me.’ I said, ‘Get out of my house,’ and she goes, ‘I’m the devil.'”
“She looked possessed, her eyes were completely black, like saucers, and she was laughing like it was a joke,” he said.
The husband said that he grabbed his pistol and began firing after giving the woman a verbal warning to leave.
He began firing, ejecting 39 rounds into the home, none of which struck the intruder.
He said that the woman had superhuman strength and, instead of running from the gunfire, charged at him.
“She was not stopping,” he said.
“She had the strength of four grown men.”
He began throwing furniture at the invader when he ran out of ammunition, then his wife, Melissa Lewis, and children intervened.
“She was in to kill us,” Lewis said. “That was her almighty, to kill us.
She attacked us, and I held her down just kept on punching her and punching her as hard as I possibly could.”
One of the children, 12-year-old Jason, finally stopped the attacker shoving a wrench into her neck.
The woman is in the ICU, but once out, she will be charged with robbery, breaking, and entering and attempted murder. The family started a
GoFundMe to recoup costs of damage done to their home.
