2 suspected home invaders injured, arrested following shootout with Los Banos homeowner, police say
A violent home invasion is rocking residents in Los Banos.
“It was very scary,” Sergio Juarez tells Action News. He says the neighborhood is usually quiet.
But overnight, residents heard gunshots as police say five armed men forced their way into a home at Edward Street near San Luis Street.
“At least four people inside the residence, and, thankfully, none of them were injured,” Police Chief Ray Reyna said.
The homeowner approached the intruders with a gun he legally owns,” Reyna said. It led to an exchange of gunfire.
“The homeowner did arm himself and was able to shoot two of the suspects – two of the five suspects, injuring them,” he said.
Scanner audio captured the injuries as police responded.
“One patient will have a (gunshot wound) to the leg, the second patient (gunshot wound) to the stomach,” a dispatcher broadcast.
Those suspects are now in custody at a Modesto area hospital, where they are expected to survive.
Police are still searching for three others. They got out of the home through a bedroom window before escaping in a car.

HOUSTON — A man shot another man who broke into his garage and wife’s car Friday night, according to the Houston Police Department.This happened around 11 p.m. on Kelving Street, which is near the intersection of Kirby Drive and W Holcombe Boulevard.
Police said the 50-year-old homeowner and his pregnant wife were at home when they heard beeping and their alarm going off. The homeowner grabbed his handgun and went to check it out.
When he got to the garage, he noticed the door had been opened. That’s when he found a man inside his wife’s car in the driveway.
The man got out of the wife’s car and started moving down the driveway. Houston police said the homeowner told him to stop. According to HPD, it was dark outside and the man made a quick movement, prompting the homeowner to open fire twice, hitting the man once in the arm and once in the leg.
The homeowner yelled at his wife to call 911 and get help as he stayed with the man.
The Houston Fire Department quickly arrived to the scene and brought the man to an area hospital where he is expected to survive. He is expected to face burglary charges.
The Harris County District Attorney’s Office will investigate this incident to determine whether any charges will be filed on the homeowner.

No charges filed yet and KHOU is there! Thanks, Gun Bunny.
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human liberty; it is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
