CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A 68-year-old man shot and killed one of two home invasion suspects who broke into his home late Sunday.
A man died in the shooting, but police and the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner have not released any information on the man who died. The medical examiner confirmed the man died but will wait to release his name until his family is notified.
The shooting happened about 8:30 p.m. Sunday at the 68-year-old man's home in the 2200 block of East 38th Street.

He went downstairs with his gun and saw two men standing in his kitchen. Both men started to charge at him, according to police.
The man told police he screamed and fired two shots, then ran upstairs and called 911.
Police found a man dead with a gunshot wound to his head in the backyard of the home, near the steps leading to a backdoor, according to police reports.
He was pronounced dead by medics about 9 p.m.
The 68-year-old man was not injured during the incident, according to police.
