An Iowa homeowner grabbed his gun after strange noises woke him up in middle of the night Thursday, after which he allegedly saw an intruder breaking through a window in his home southwest of Casey, which is very close to Interstate 80 — and shot the intruder multiple times.
What are the details? The Adair County Sheriff's Office said the home's resident, after being awakened, heard additional loud noises and glass breaking — and saw someone trying to enter the residence through a broken window.
Officials said the resident fired multiple shots at the suspected intruder and then called 911 around 4:30 a.m.
Officers responded and administered first aid to the wounded individual, officials said, adding that the identity of the suspected intruder wasn't immediately confirmed.
