A suspected auto burglar was in hospital in critical but stable condition after being shot by the owner of a car being burglarized in the 8400 block of Julian Robles NE, police said.

The man who shot the suspect has been charged with aggravated battery resulting in great bodily harm, and was booked into the Metropolitan Detention Center, according to Albuquerque Police spokesman Simon Drobik.

Police received a call at about 2 a.m. Sunday from a man later identified as Kyle Cordova, 26, who reported that his car was being burglarized and the suspect was still in the car.

“At some point, Mr. Cordova retrieved a handgun and shot the burglar once,” Albuquerque police spokesman Simon Drobik said in an email on Sunday.
