Home Invasion Turns Deadly For Robber

A home invasion robbery went awry for three intruders late Monday night, leaving one dead following a gun battle with the home owner.

The shooting happened at about 10 p.m. Monday.

The Bakersfield Police Department said it received a 911 call from a home on Kearney Drive in northwest Bakersfield; the caller said shots had been fired.

When police arrived, they found one man dead on the front lawn of the home and another man with several gunshot wounds. A third suspect had fled on foot.
