A teenager was wounded before being arrested for a suspected autobreaking incident in Greenville County.
The Greenville County Sheriff's Office says a homeowner on North Haven Drive said he heard noise outside his home around 1:30 a.m. Sunday.
The man was armed when he went outside the house and said he saw the 16-year old suspect breaking into a vehicle in the driveway. Deputies say the homeowner thought the teenager pulled out a weapon.
"You don't know if your going to die right then and there so you have no choice but to defend yourself," The shooter's sister, India Byers said.
The homeowner eventually shot and wounded the suspect who was arrested when deputies arrived. He was taken to a hospital to be treated.
