Police say the 29-year-old man was shot early Tuesday morning by the home’s 73-year-old owner as the younger man was trying to enter the house through a front window he had broken.

Officers who arrived at the home found the younger man on the front porch, bleeding. He was taken to an Omaha hospital in critical condition, but was soon upgraded to fair condition.

No charges have yet been filed in the case. The investigation continues.
