From Grand Junction, Colorado<\/a>;<\/p>\n

A husband and wife who live in the 2100 block of 45\u00bd Road told law enforcement that they “were happy they didn’t have to shoot” a man high on methamphetamine who kept trying to get in their home early Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Mesa County sheriff’s deputies arrested Robert Ortego, 53, after they found him on the back porch of a residence just after 4 a.m. The homeowner called authorities after Ortego allegedly tried to force open the back door, this after circling the home looking for a way inside. During the call, a dispatcher could hear the homeowner in the background “screaming he would shoot him,” according to an affidavit for Ortego’s arrest.<\/p>\n

Ortego was fidgety and incoherent at times, and he showed other physical signs of being high on methamphetamine, deputies noted. Ortego allegedly admitted to recently shooting up, according to deputies, and made numerous paranoid and nonsensical statements during questioning.<\/p>\n

The husband and wife who confronted Ortego as he tried to break into their home in the middle of the night told deputies Ortego got on their back porch and attempted to force open the back door.<\/p>\n

“(The homeowners) stated they were both terrified of him getting into the house but happy they didn’t have to shoot him,” an arrest affidavit reads.<\/p>\n

A judge issued Ortego a $5,000 cash-only bond on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Ortego was on parole at the time of his arrest, and previously served a five-year sentence for a drug-related case.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Wales, Wisconsin<\/a>;<\/p>\n

According to the Waukesha County Sheriff\u2019s Office, deputies were dispatched to a burglary-in-progress in the Village of Wales around 6:20 p.m.<\/p>\n

Officials say a 76-year-old male homeowner was involved in a physical altercation with a 33-year-old man. The 33-year-old man became unresponsive during the altercation and was later pronounced deceased.<\/p>\n

At this time, names are being withheld pending notifications and further investigation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Harris County, Texas<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Deputies say a robbery suspect is dead after he showed up to a hospital in north Harris County.<\/p>\n

Authorities tell Eyewitness News this all began as a gunfight between the robber and a resident in the parking lot of an apartment complex at 16700 Kuykendahl Rd. around 9 p.m. Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Investigators say the victim told them that the suspect shot at him first, so he pulled out his gun and fired back.<\/p>\n

That’s when the suspect was injured. Officials say he drove himself to Kindred Hospital.<\/p>\n

He was then transferred to Houston Northwest Hospital due to the severity of his injury. We’re told that’s where he died.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In Farmington, New Mexico<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Hours after sending an alert saying they sought a suspect shot with a bow and arrow, San Juan County deputies say they they found him.<\/p>\n

Eric Tillerson faces charges of aggravated assault, trespassing and cruelty to animals. Deputies say a homeowner shot Tillerson after Tillerson threatened him and began shooting the homeowner’s dog with a pellet gun.<\/p>\n

Tillerson reported walked out of the intensive care unit after being taken for treatment.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
