GENESEE COUNTY, N.Y. (WKBW) — Police in Genesee County are investigating after a homeowner shot an intruder during an alleged home invasion.

The Genesee County Undersheriff says 36-year-old Charles Cooper forced his way into a home on Clinton Street overnight, appeared to be in possession of a gun, and demanded cash from the homeowner.

The 76-year-old homeowner tells 7 Eyewitness News it was shortly after 9:00 p.m. he heard a knock at the door. He says the man, wearing a ski mask pushed him and forced his way inside.

"He had the gun in my face," the man said.

The homeowner says the suspect then asked the couple to move to the back mud room. The homeowner went first, knowing he had the double-barrel shotgun in the room.

"I hurried up and went down, he didn't follow me right away. I backed up against the wall, reached up and got the shotgun. I put it behind me. He couldn't see it. He turned around, dropped his money and he reached down and I shot from the hip. He went down," the homeowner said.

The homeowner says his wife called 911.

Cooper was airlifted to Strong Memorial Hospital. He is listed in critical condition.

Police say the homeowner's long gun was legally-owned.


Bet that man won't try to rob that house again !!!

No he won't have to steal the money now he will probably take it all legally now. which is more or a crime IMO.. good for the homeowner I believe he was more than justified however I'm loosing faith in our judicial system. if the robber does sue the attorney and anyone else involved deserves the same justice the old man provided in the first place.

There is another article of the same story . The house where the incident took place, has a long Wheelchair ramp in front of the house. If the old Man is in a Wheelchair, I think he did a pretty good job of handling the situation.

It wouldn't matter if the robber does/did die the family could still sue.
