Armed Home Invader Shot Multiple Times by 76-Year-Old Man in Indianapolis

A home invader remains in critical condition at an Indianapolis hospital after being shot by the 76-year-old husband of a woman he attempted to rob at gunpoint early Monday evening.

According to the Indianapolis Star, police said the suspect — later identified as 27-year-old Anthony Talley — entered a rental office inside a home located in the 700 block of N. Bosart Avenue around 4:45 p.m. and pointed a gun at the 75-year-old woman who was present at the time.

What Talley didn’t realize is that the woman’s husband happened to be in the back of the office at the time. The husband grabbed a handgun, made his way to the front of the house, and shot Talley multiple times, including once in the head.

Police arrived and Talley was transported to Eskenazi Hospital to be treated for his injuries.
