UPDATE, Aug. 26:
EL PASO, Texas -- A central El Paso homeowner struck an alleged intruder in the face with a machete early Wednesday, leaving the man hospitalized with serious wounds, police said.
Authorities said the homeowner confronted 22–year-old Carlos Esteban Villaescusa after hearing glass breaking and finding the accused burglar using a metal rod to try and break into the house in the 2600 block of Fillmore.
"Armed with a machete the homeowner told the man to leave but a confrontation ensued and the homeowner struck the intruder in the face with the machete," said Sgt. Enrique Carrillo, a police spokesman.
Villaescusa fled as officers arrived about 4:15 a.m. They chased him, eventually capturing him after he jumped into the backyard of another home in the neighborhood.
Detectives said they found evidence that Villaescusa had also tried to break into another home on that same street.
Once he's released from the hospital, police said Villaescusa will be booked into the downtown jail on charges including burglary, evading arrest, criminal mischief and criminal trespassing.
