Home Invasion Suspect Dead



A suspect is dead and another man wounded after an apparent home invasion in downtown Atlanta early Wednesday morning.



Police answered a call around 12:30 a.m. to gated apartments across from the Atlanta Civic Center. A burglar entered the apartment and shot one of the men inside, police said. But the man's brother fired back at the suspect with a gun of his own. The suspect was dead at the scene, Police Sgt. Bob Creasy said. It appears the man who fired back was defending his brother, Creasy said.



The wounded man, who was shot in the chest and the leg, was brought to Grady Memorial Hospital for surgery. Police did not immediately release any names in the incident.
