HOUSTON, TX — A suspected burglar was shot and killed Monday afternoon outside a residence in Houston after the homeowners returned to find him on their property.

Houston police responded to a shooting call around 4:05 p.m. at a home on Bonnie Brae Drive, where they discovered an unresponsive male lying in the driveway.
