It sounds like a small-caliber "sledgehammer"... maybe just a two-pound ENGINEER'S hammer in this case. The uneducated press seems to like to exaggerate certain weapons: .223 are "high power" rifles, and so on.
If the homeowner had used an 8- or 12-pounder and had gotten a real swing on it, it's more than likely there would have been a different outcome. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction. — St. George Tucker, in his edition of 'Blackstone's Commentaries,' 1:300 (1803). |
