a male subject with gunshot wounds. Initial call notes indicated that a male subject was burglarizing a
residence in the 1600 block of Amana Rd. Two neighbors went to check the residence. The burglar then
exited the residence and fired several rounds from a rifle, striking one of the neighbors multiple times. The
neighbors returned fire striking the burglar suspect. The burglar then fled into the desert. The burglar was
