34-year-old masked man kicks in door, beats elderly occupant And demands money. Occupant shoots robber several times. Robber staggers out of the house ends up at a local hotel where police picked him up and took him to the hospital. Critical condition but not dead as of the time of the article.

Occupant was unaware at the time of the incident that the masked man was his grandson.

And of course:
Mays said she is a friend of [the robber] and he “was in the process of making changes in his life,”

So did the occupant know the person he shot was his grandson when he pulled the trigger?
