The neighbor told police two men were inside the home and one had a handgun. The neighbor and the burglar exchange fire, and the burglar was hit once in the ankle. When officers arrived they found the burglar who had been shot. He was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The second burglar left the scene before police arrived.
