Three teens are facing charges in connection with an armed robbery after a wounded Sandusky resident subdued one of his assailants after he was shot in his home during a burglary.
The robbery happened at a home on the 500 block of East Madison Street around 10:30 p.m. According to police, a 14-year-old, 13-year-old and 15-year-old were surprised by the resident when they entered the house. The 15-year-old allegedly pulled out a gun, shot the resident and ran from the house with the 13-year-old.
The injured man apprehended the 14-year-old and contacted police. The teen was taken into custody and charged with aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery. The 13-year-old was arrested the next day and charged with the same crime.

The resident is expected to make a full recovery.
