The [78 yo]man heard noises made by three male suspects who were trying to break through his front door shortly after 9 p.m...

When the homeowner opened the door, he was faced with the three suspects, and saw one of them trying to break his screen door with the crowbar, police said.

The man fired a gun through the screen door, apparently hitting one of the suspects who limped away from the home, police said.
The other two got in a red van and fled.

Homeowner has a FOID, no charges pending at this time.
