"Let Hector suffer?"
If the homeowner possessed Superman's reflexes and gun control ability [highly unrealistic expectation], then he'd be able to plant shots with surgical precision on the moving target [intruder] for maximizing the suffering - bone joints, bladder, and so on. In practice, he'd be shooting at the center of mass, with a possible double-tap to the head after the intruder had been more or less immobilized by the center of mass hits.

I can always hope.
