Suspected home invader shot, killed

A late-night shooting in the Four Hills area of Albuquerque left one person dead and a homeowner shaken.

Police say the homeowner called 911 about 11:30 Saturday night.

Albuquerque Police Department spokesperson Trish Hoffman says the homeowner woke up to sounds inside his house, discovered a burglar and shot the intruder.

The intruder died at the scene. Detectives haven’t released whether the intruder was armed.

Detectives are investigating the scene as a homicide, but say it’s possible the homeowner won’t be charged because it may be a justifiable homicide.
