SAGINAW, MI -- A male suspect is in custody after police say he was shot Sunday night while trying to break into a Saginaw home.

Saginaw police officer and Michigan State Police troopers responded May 27 to the 1700 block of Vermont Street and learned three suspects attempted to kick in the home's door.

Michigan State Police Lt. David Kaiser said the homeowner warned the suspects he had a gun and told them to stay out of his house.

That's when shots were allegedly fired into the home by at least one of the suspects and the homeowner returned fire, Kaiser said. One of the suspects was hit during the exchange of gunfire.

The group of men fled from the scene, but the injured suspect later traveled to a local hospital for treatment where he was interviewed by a Michigan State Police investigator.

He's been lodged at the Saginaw County Jail awaiting formal charges including attempted armed robbery, home invasion, and assault with intent to murder. No descriptions were available on the two additional suspects.

Anyone with information on the incident may contact the Saginaw Police Department at 989-759-1229 or report a tip anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-422-JAIL (5245) or on the P3 tips app.
