An alleged intruder was shot and injured Saturday night after trying to "forcibly enter" a home in Lehi, police said.
About 8:40 p.m., officers were dispatched to 391 N. 900 East on the report of a burglary in progress, according to a statement from Lehi police.
While officers were on the way to the house, dispatchers told them a 20-year-old man had been trespassing at the house earlier, had returned and was trying to break in, police said.
Comment on this story The officers got to the home and discovered the man with multiple gunshot wounds — at least two in his legs and one in his stomach, Lehi Police Sgt. Levi Lewis said. He was taken to Intermountain Medical Center for treatment.
As of late Sunday morning, he remained hospitalized with serious injuries but was expected to survive, Lewis said. The man is expected to be arrested after he is released from the hospital, according to Lewis.
There was no known relationship between the alleged intruder and residents in the home, the sergeant said.

Center of mass, aim for the the center of mass.
Be sure to double tap.
He did. A head shot is more lethal..
Boy I love a story with a happy ending.
Booby trap the inside and hook a camera up to the internet.
The homeowner needs to either lower his front sight or raise his rear sight.
Too bad he survived.
And, as with the recent shooting of a guy who was assulting a young woman in Provo, we’ll get to see an idiot friend of the perp saying “I know what he did was wrong but he didn’t have to shoot him”.
I love a good nap time story!! Let’s make the homeowner the grand marshall of the Lehi Pioneer Day parade on the 24th.
Tulta munille!
How come the alleged intruder doesn’t have alleged gunshot wounds?
391 N. 900 East
Who comes up with these addresses? Those assigned to making them up must get a belly laugh with this convoluted crap...
Wonder if the incident will help the boy make better career choices?
Did he ‘allegedly’ get shot?
Same people that come u[ with things like 5/3 Bank.
Yeah, I never got when or why “allegedly” gets used sometimes and sometimes not.
against the law.
You’d be the one going to prison.
Don't laugh too hard.
It is based on a grid system and is actually very logical. After a few minutes of study, even without a map, one could start at any point in a town and travel by the most direct route to any address.
The invention of the GPS has cut some of the advantage, but for well over a century it was one of the most sophisticated street numbering systems in existence.
