Police: Dad Shoots Intruder -- Daughter's Ex-Boyfriend

SANTA ANA (AP) - Authorities say a father shot an intruder at his daughter's Santa Ana home as the man tried to crawl through a window.

The Orange County Register reports Santa Ana Police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna says officers responded to the house at 1:50 a.m. Sunday after receiving a domestic violence call, but the intruder -- the woman's ex-boyfriend -- was not there when they arrived.

Bertagna says the man apparently returned later and the father confronted him as he was coming through a window.

The wounded man was transported to a hospital.

The incident is under investigation.
