(WWJ) An investigation is underway after authorities say a Port Huron-area resident shot a man who'd trespassed on his property.
St Clair County Sheriff Deputies were dispatched to a breaking and entering complaint that was in progress, in the 6000 block of Lapeer Road in Clyde Township, Monday afternoon.
According to the St. Clair County Sheriff's Office, the 50-year-old homeowner was armed when he confronted the alleged intruder.
While the suspect was trying to get away, it's alleged that he drove at the property owner who fired multiple shots with a handgun, hitting the suspect in the face.
The wounded man, identified a 27-year-old Kimball Township resident, went to a local hospital where he was found by deputies.
He was last listed in serious condition.
It's unclear if the property owner may face charges as the investigation by the Port Huron Major Crimes Unit continues.
No names have been released.
