A man San Marcos police said was shot after breaking into a home on Oscar Smith Drive armed with a BB gun, is in stable condition today at University Medical Center Brackenridge, police Commander Penny Dunn said.
Police released no names involved in the shooting as they continued their investigation, Dunn said. No charges have been filed in the case, she said.
Officers were first called at 9:50 p.m. Wednesday from someone reporting a break-in in progress at the back door of a home in the 700 block of Oscar Smith Drive, Dunn said.
One of three people in the home at the time fired several shots at a man Dunn said was armed with a BB handgun. The intruder then fled on foot wounded, she said.
Dunn said police were alerted that a man with several gunshot wounds came to Central Texas Medical Center in San Marcos after 10 p.m. Doctors there gave him primary treatment and the suspect was transferred to Brackenridge, she said.

Last month four armed teenagers broke into a San Marcos home. Three of the intruders were shot by the homeowner — two died...what’s the legal limit on bagging home invaders in Texas? Good shooting, folks...
This is 10 days old. I thought it looked familiar. Oldie but goodie, I guess.
The turkey learned that the hard way. :-)
