A suspect was hospitalized after being shot during an alleged home intrusion in Lake Forest Park, Washington, Sunday just after 5 a.m.
The home is located “in the 19100 block of Ballinger Way N.E. in Lake Forest Park,” according to MyNorthwest.
KIRO 7 noted that the homeowner called 911 “to report that someone inside the home had just shot an intruder.”
KOMO News reported that officers arrived on scene and “[provided] lifesaving measures to the injured intruder.” The suspect was then placed in the hospital for treatment.
Law enforcement is subsequently investigating a fire in a residence “just one block south” of where the alleged intrusion occurred, to see if the two incidents are tied together.
The fire occurred about an hour and 40 minutes before the alleged intrusion.
