A group of masked suspects learned the hard way that breaking into an occupied home can go very wrong.
Police in Darien, Connecticut are investigating a home invasion attempt that ended with a homeowner opening fire on three intruders early in the morning, according to reporting from WFSB.
The incident happened around 6:00 a.m. on Five Mile River Road, when police received a call reporting a burglary in progress.
According to investigators, the homeowner told police that three masked suspects were attempting to break into the residence. At least one of the intruders was reportedly armed.
When the suspects forced their way through the front door, the homeowner responded with gunfire.
That’s when things quickly unraveled for the would-be burglars.
After shots were fired, the suspects immediately fled the scene, leaving the property and disappearing into the area.
But the story didn’t end there.
A short time later, police say a young man matching the description of one of the suspects showed up at Bridgeport Hospital suffering from a gunshot wound.
He was rushed into surgery.
Investigators believe the injury may be connected to the attempted home invasion and are continuing to piece together what happened.
Authorities have not yet released the identities of the suspects or announced whether any charges have been filed. Police are also working to determine the roles of the other individuals involved in the attempted break-in.
For the homeowner, however, the outcome could have been far worse.
Situations like this highlight a harsh reality: home invasions often unfold quickly and violently, leaving homeowners with only seconds to react. In this case, the resident was armed and able to defend the home when three masked individuals allegedly forced entry.
Police say the investigation is ongoing.
