ABC 7 reported that the incident occurred around 1:30 a.m.
Chicago 32 noted that police responded to a report of a person being shot and arrived to find the 33-year-old alleged intruder fatally wounded. The alleged intruder died on the scene.
The homeowner told police that the alleged intruder made his way into the home and charged at him, prompting the homeowner to shoot.
The 33-year-old alleged intruder was struck in the chest by at least one round.
National Today pointed out, “Home invasions and violent crime remain a concern for many Chicago residents, especially in neighborhoods like South Deering that have historically higher rates of property and violent offenses.”
