Corning Man Shot During Burglary



A Corning man is in critical condition after police say he was shot while burglarizing a home in Bradford County. State Police in Towanda say the burglary took place early Wednesday morning at the home of 39 year old Howard Young of Windham Township.



Police say 25-year old Chad Patterson entered the home on the State Line Road around 2:20 a.m., took some items and was confronted by Young. Young then shot Patterson while he was still inside the house and Patterson fled the scene. It appears Patterson then went to Corning. Police, searching a house at 117 W. Second Street in Corning told 18 News they were searching the home for items that may have been taken from a burglary in Bradford County.



Elmira police say a man with a gunshot wound to the back was flown by helicopter early this morning from Corning to the Arnot Ogden Medical Center. Hospital officials say Patterson is being treated there and is in critical condition.
