A homeowner in Newton County, Texas, awoke to an alleged naked intruder in his home Wednesday at about 5:30 a.m. and shot him.
The Washington Examiner reported that the suspect was allegedly trying to steal the homeowner’s cat.
KFDM summarized how the incident unfolded:
At about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, a homeowner in the 190 Block of CR 4161 contacted the Newton County Dispatch Center and stated that he woke up and found an unidentified naked man inside his house. He described the intruder as a white male that appeared to be young, possibly in his early twenties. The homeowner further advised that the unidentified man tried to steal his cat.
KATV noted that the homeowner fired a shot at the suspect and “grazed his right forearm.”
The suspect then fled the home, and a deputy spotted him running naked. The suspect was apprehended and taken to the hospital to have his wound treated.
After treatment, the suspect was released into the custody of the Newton County Sheriff’s Office.
