From Katy, TX<\/a>;<\/p>\n

A Katy homeowner shot a man in the head while his car was being burglarized Friday morning, according to the Harris County Precinct 5 Constables Office.<\/p>\n

The shooting happened around 1 a.m. at a home near Park Valley and Park Brush, in the Katy area.<\/p>\n

A 19-year-old man was breaking into a car in the home’s garage, when the homeowner heard him and grabbed a gun, spokesman Jeff McShan said.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The homeowner, a “elderly gentleman,” had twice asked the suspect to leave, but the suspect refused, spokesman Thomas Gilliland said. The homeowner then fired a single shot, which “grazed” the suspect’s head, he said.<\/p>\n

“The homeowner had every right to defend himself,” Gilliland said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From York, NC<\/a><\/p>\n

A pair of victims of robberies in separate York County incidents Thursday and Friday shot at the suspects, police said.<\/p>\n

One of the victims, a 72-year-old man armed with a shotgun filled with a type of buckshot, told police that he believes he wounded a male suspect who stole a car, police said.<\/p>\n

In that incident Friday morning around 3 a.m. on Patrick Road at the North Carolina state line with Gaston County, the victim went to a shed after a motion sensor went off and found the suspect inside. The homeowner said he shot at the suspect and believed he hit the suspect, an incident report states.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
The suspect \u201cyelled\u201d after possibly being shot in the torso, then stole a vehicle and fled, the man told police.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Just a few hours before on Aquarius Drive near Clover, a woman, 22, told deputies that she used a shotgun to fire at a robbery suspect, a second incident report states.<\/p>\n

In that crime around 10 p.m. Thursday, the victim told deputies that an assailant tried to smash into the home with a tomahawk before the victim inside fired the gun at the intruder.<\/p>\n

It is unknown in the second case if the suspect was hit by the shotgun blast.<\/p>\n

The suspect in that case fled in a getaway van, the victim told police.<\/p>\n

Detectives are seeking suspects in both cases, said Trent Faris, spokesman for the sheriff\u2019s office.<\/p>\n

No charges have been filed against either homeowner, police said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
