Sun City, AZ homeowner wounds armed man who broke into their home at 2 AM

From Fox TV in Phoenix:
Police have arrested a man who broke into a home in Sun City. In this case, the homeowner fought back and shot the man.
It's hard to imagine how any of us would react waking up in the middle of the night to find someone with a gun in your home trying to rob you.
But this suspect picked the wrong home. The homeowner has law enforcement training and a gun, and he used that to fight back.
Video shows the suspect face down on a golf course in Sun City, surrounded by Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies. They say he's the suspect in a home invasion early Friday at a home only a few blocks away. . . .
This started around 2 a.m. The couple living here was sound asleep when a man armed with a gun broke in.
The homeowner, Dave Sobley, is a military veteran and an MCSO posse lieutenant. Deputies say he grabbed his gun and shot the intruder, who then ran off.
"I was afraid for my life and my wife's life. I knew if he got us together it may be over," said Sobley. . . .
