Ohio Self Defense: Homeowner, 74, shoots suspected teen burglar inside Akron home Tuesday morning :: 03/29/2022

A 74-year-old Akron homeowner Tuesday morning confronted and shot a suspected teen burglar inside a Johnston Street home in what was described as a home invasion, Akron police said.

The incident, at a home in the 700 block of Johnston Street, was called in at 7:26 a.m. The home is in a residential neighborhood east of state Route 8 and Lumiere Street, and west of Hammel Street.

Police said they found a 16-year-old inside the home with multiple gunshot wounds. Police gave the teen first aid until he was transported to Akron Children's Hospital, where he is listed in stable condition.

Police said he is expected to make a full recovery and could be released from the hospital this weekend.

Police said the homeowner told them the teen forced his way into his house. The homeowner confronted the teen at one point and fired a gun at him, striking him multiple times.

Police said the homeowner was not hurt.

The investigation is ongoing, and no charges have been filed. Akron detectives are still gathering information, police said.
