Intruder shot multiple times, gravely wounded in predawn home invasion<\/a><\/p>\n

An intruder was shot multiple times during a predawn home invasion Monday in Elmore County.<\/p>\n

The ordeal began just before 5 a.m. in the 200 block of Clemons Road in the Flatwood community. Sheriff Bill Franklin said the scene is a residential area that consists of about a dozen or so mobile homes.<\/p>\n

A man, who along with his wife and young child, were awakened at 4:55 a.m. by a loud banging at the front door. The homeowner grabbed his 9 mm handgun and went to investigate.<\/p>\n

When he got to the front door, he came face to face with 39-year-old Charles Bowne, who lives nearby. At that point, the sheriff said, Bowne told the homeowner, \u201cGive me your (expletive).\u201d<\/p>\n

Bowne then reached toward his pocket and the homeowner said he feared the intruder was going for a gun. The homeowner fired four to five rounds, shooting Bowne in the head, bicep, shoulder and left leg, and then called 911.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Try for the torso next time, dude…T-O-R-S-O.
\nSomewhere in right in the middle, between the Collar bone to Belly button.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Bowne was airlifted to a Montgomery hospital where he is in critical condition. The sheriff said a crack pipe was retrieved from Bowne\u2019s sock.<\/p>\n

Franklin said Bowne spent time in prison in Indiana and has previously had at least one other confrontation with another neighbor. He said he does not expect any charges to be filed against the homeowner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t have that many home invasions in Elmore County,\u2019\u2019 the sheriff said. \u201cIt\u2019s not every morning you wake up at 4:55 a.m. to somebody inside your front door. That\u2019s pretty rough.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
