Homeowner wounded but fights back in possible home invasion | HPD searching for second suspect<\/a><\/p>\n

GALENA PARK, Texas \u2014 A late-night gunfight during an attempted home invasion left a homeowner and one of the suspected intruders wounded, and Houston police are now searching for a second suspect who is still on the run.<\/p>\n

It happened just after 1:20 a.m. Tuesday off East Avenue J in the East End near Galena Park. Investigators said two men approached a home and were possibly trying to force their way inside when they were met by the homeowner and gunfire erupted.<\/p>\n

Homeowner drove himself for help
\nAccording to HPD, the homeowner was shot at least once but was able to get into his vehicle and drive himself about a mile and a half to Houston Fire Station 23. Officers located him there and took his statement. Police say he is now listed in stable condition.<\/p>\n

One suspect taken into custody, one still missing
\nAbout two blocks from the shooting scene, on Avenue L, police say one of the suspects knocked on a door and asked for help. Officers responded and found him with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken into custody and transported for medical treatment.<\/p>\n

The second suspect has not been found. Investigators believe he may have left the area in a vehicle.<\/p>\n

Robbery Division now leads the investigation
\nHouston police confirm the Robbery Division has now taken over the case, classifying it as an attempted home invasion.<\/p>\n

The investigation is ongoing, and detectives are working to determine the relationship \u2014 if any \u2014 between the suspects and the homeowner, and whether the house was specifically targeted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
