[Hoopla Phil]

The suspected intruder was 19 year old Elijah Espinoza. Commander Chase Stapp with the San Marcos Police Department says Espinoza was shot by a resident as he tried to enter the back door of the home around 3 a.m. Sunday.

Commander Stapp says someone broke into the same home early Saturday and assaulted a woman inside. He believes there is a good chance Espinoza is responsible for that assault.

One attack and maybe back for more? Fortunately people have the right, and the means, to protect themselves.
