ST. LOUIS — A 60-year-old man shot and killed a suspect who he said was trying to break into his home in the College Hill neighborhood on Nov. 19.

St. Louis police responded at 11 p.m. to a burglary call at a home on the 1500 block of East Grand Ave.

When they arrived, they found a man lying on the back porch with a gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

He was later identified as Patrick Evans, 43, of the 1100 block of Penrose St. in St. Louis.

The man who lives at the home told police he was inside when he heard Evans at his backdoor. He then grabbed his gun and shot him as he tried to climb through the kitchen window.

A homicide investigation is underway.
