Sure we know what his condition is. Shot, and arrested.

A would-be home burglar was hospitalized Sunday morning after being shot by a homeowner, Dallas police said.
The shooting happened at about 12 p.m. Saturday in the 9800 block of La Brett Drive.
Police arrested the burglar when they arrived.
His condition is unknown at this time.

Wonderful!!
Merry Christmas, Dave! Thanks for the ping.
Looks like a good area in which to get shot.
Looks like someone gets to keep their Christmas presents.
I want more details. It's a happy story it should be longer.
Wonderful??? The perp's still alive, ain't he? We need to get the homeowner a good lawyer and a larger caliber weapon or perhaps marksmanship lessons! Never leave an intruder alive to testify against you!
Was he wearing a red suit and hat?
That's my old beat in the Grove. Handled more than one call around there where homeowners were holding a burglar or car thief at the point of a shotgun for us.
Merry Christmas, Dave. Good news! Thanks for all of your pings/posts/information.
Hey, I can see my house!
I can see Big Town Mall, home of great gun shows.
:~(
Gideon Reader fully agrees with Night Reader.
Larger caliber?
Better breath control?
Better trigger control?
Fire two sets of double taps.
Repeat as needed.
Merry Christmas to you. Few remaining days to the recipient of the rounds.
Too bad the perp survived.
Merry Christmas!
"Never leave an intruder alive to testify against you!"
I totally agree, but perhaps it was at least in a very painful location. There's always still the hope for a Staph infection as well. :-)
Should have been a .40 caliber handgun or above. Then again I prefer a shotgun with 000 Magnum copper plated buckshot for home defense. That your only problem is cleaning up the mess.
Merry Christmas!!
