SAN ANTONIO - A man was rushed to the hospital early Thursday after being shot through a door while allegedly threatening the homeowner.

The shooting happened just after midnight at a home off Ingram Road near Culebra Road on the West Side.

Police say the man was reportedly banging on the door and making menacing threats. Authorities say the resident fired through the door, striking the suspect in the left arm.

Investigators said footage from the scene showed the suspect banging on the door, waking up the homeowner and demanding it be opened. The suspect left but returned and began banging on the door again.

The homeowner told police that the suspect was making threats that he was going to "get inside and kill him."

When the suspect tried to open the door, the homeowner fired through the door, hitting the suspect.

The suspect is listed in stable condition, and police said he will be charged with attempted burglary with intent to assault.

The investigation is ongoing.
