According to initial reports from law enforcement, a man gained entry into a house in the 1000 block of Thrailkill Road just before midnight on Sunday.

The 9-1-1 caller told dispatchers that the reported intruder had entered through a side door in the residence and was “trying to burglarize” the house. The Guardian has been unable to confirm the motive or reasoning for the man’s presence at the property. When deputies arrived they found the man deceased on the lower-level of the home, while the homeowners were upstairs.

The alleged intruder was described as an African-American male who suffered “multiple gunshot wounds,” according to county coroner Dr. John Ellis.

Ellis said the man was pronounced dead shortly after midnight by local EMS and that the intruder had no identifiable information on him. Ellis said the body would be taken to Montgomery County for an autopsy.

Signature-yellow crime scene tape sectioned off the property as deputies scoured the area for evidence. Law enforcement said that there was damage to the side door of the home, but stopped shy of confirming a motive.
