TOLEDO, Wash. -- A 62-year-old man shot and killed an intruder in his home late Tuesday, officials said.
Lewis County Sheriff Chief Deputy Gene Seiber said the homeowner woke up when he heard someone breaking into his house about 10:40 p.m.
The man confronted the would-be burglar on the stairs and repeatedly told him to stop, Seiber said, but the intruder kept coming toward the homeowner.
After shouting 'freeze' one last time, the homeowner shot him.
The intruder died at the scene. His name has not been released.
Seiber said detectives will be continuing their investigation on Wednesday.
