GREELEY, Colo. — A home invasion suspect who allegedly shot a resident of a Greeley home during an attempted break-in was shot himself and is now facing charges, according to the Greeley Police Department.

Greeley police said Guadalupe Balderas, 26, was trying to break into a home in the 1800 block of Montview Boulevard around 5:41 p.m. Saturday. The home was occupied by a 26-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man.
