Homeowner pulls out all the stops after intruder forces his way in. Only one of them is still standing at the end.

A Washington state man wasn't about to let an intruder follow through with his apparent plans to burgle the homeowner's abode, and pulled out every stop possible to thwart the intruder's plan.

What happened?

A homeless man broke into a Washington state man's home on Friday, according to KCPQ-TV.

The homeless man purportedly broke into the homeowner's home via the kitchen, where the homeowner was waiting with his wife. After the homeless man entered the victim's home, the victim struck the suspect with a piece of wood in the kitchen. When that didn't stop the suspect, the victim then turned to his trusty firearm and shot the intruder squarely in the chest.

Authorities responded to the scene after the homeowners phoned for help and reported a burglary in progress. The suspect was taken to a nearby hospital and treated for his injuries. He is expected to live, and will face charges of first-degree residential burglary.

The homeowner is not expected to face any charges, according to the station.
