Two men are facing charges after a burglary attempt in Council Bluffs Thursday night.
Council Bluffs Police say officers were dispatched just before 10:00 to a home after a resident said a man was stealing items from his property.
They say the resident, 59 year old Gauino Gutierrez, saw 34 year old Adam Daewood on his property, so Gutierrez armed himself with a small caliber rifle and confronted Daewood.
Police say Gutierrez fired two shots in an attempt to scare the trespasser, but did not hit him.
Daewood did suffer a leg injury due to bullet or concrete fragments hitting him.
He was treated at a local hospital then taken to the Pottawattamie County jail where he was booked on Theft and Criminal Trespass charges.
Gutierrez was cited for Discharging a Firearm in City Limits, which is a misdemeanor.
