Nurse Strangles Armed Intruder With Bare Hands

A nurse in Oregon returned home from work to find a man armed with a hammer in her house. So she did what any of us would have done... she strangled him to death. The question of how is answered with the fact that she's 5'7, 260 lbs, so she had 80 pounds on the guy. But seriously, strangling someone in "self defense"? I picture Cary Elwes strangling Andre the Giant in The Princess Bride. Only with the body types reversed.
