Northridge Man Killed by Intruder

A 30-year-old Northridge man was shot to death in his home Tuesday evening by an attacker who rang the doorbell, then forced his way inside past the victim’s wife, police said.

Police found Bennett Adam Young on the floor in the rear of his home in the 10900 block of Darby Avenue about 6:15 p.m., Police Sgt. Jim Darling said. He had been shot in the upper body.

Young’s wife told police that a man, described only as white, rang the doorbell and then forced his way in when she answered, Darling said. The attacker shot her husband and fled on foot.
