Home Alone: Girl kicks burglar out of house, draws sketch for police.
It's been 20 years since the movie "Home Alone,"
in which a young boy left at home foiled a gang of burglars.
Just recently there has been a real case in England.
Twelve-year-old Georgia Bulis-Gray was home alone
when she heard a noise from the kitchen
where she discovered a burglar.
The burglar laughed when he saw her
but undaunted, Georgia walked over and kicked the thief in the groin
The thief, in considerable pain,
staggered toward the door before making his escape.
Georgia then went to the door
to make sure the thief was not trying to break into another house.
She then sketched a likeness of the burglar
to give to the police.
A police spokesman praised Georgia's bravery
while her mother said she was very proud of Georgia.
