The suspect was taken to the hospital.
The incident happened around 2:30 a.m. in the 11200 block of Champion Woods.
The man says he was sleeping when the alarm went off.
He got up to investigate and said he found someone trying to get out through a garage window.
The homeowner said he told the suspect to freeze, but instead the man turned and had something in his hand.
That's when the homeowner shot him.
The suspect later died at an area hospital.
Deputies say the suspect had a knife.
The case has been referred to a grand jury without charges.
