A man approached the home of a 77-year-old man in Missoula,
Mont. and threw a chair through a window to gain access to the house.
Upon becoming aware of the intruder, the homeowner retrieved a gun and
fired at the burglar, striking him once. Once authorities arrived, the
wounded man was taken to a local hospital where he is expected to
survive.
Missoula Detective Sgt. Scott Pastian noted that police suspect drugs may have been a factor in the attempted burglary. (The Missoulian, Missoula, Mont. 09/16/13)
