A man was shot multiple times Tuesday morning after allegedly trying — and failing — to break into a home in Pasadena, Texas.

Police near Houston confirmed that the 40-year-old suspect tried to gain access to the house where a man and woman live but was shot multiple times before getting in. His gunshot wounds included two in his backside, KTRK-TV reported.

Several windows were broken as the homeowners defended their property.
