Homeowner Shoots Suspected Burglar

HOUSTON -- A homeowner shot a teenage burglary suspect on Sunday, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Robert and Pam Cole were asleep at their home on Cloverleaf Street near Texarkana Street in east Harris County at about 11 p.m., when they heard glass breaking.
"We were both jarred awake," Pam Cole said. "We knew something was wrong. The alarm was going off."
"Someone is coming in the house and she yelled out,' Get your shotgun,'" Robert Cole said. "I came out of the bedroom and down the hall here, a man with a black hoodie and a fire extinguisher like he was going to beat somebody, was in the living room. I came out of the bedroom with the shotgun … shot him in the hip. He screamed, dropped the fire extinguisher and dived into the hole he came in."
