>> Good evening. I'm Julie Julie Haener and I'm Mike Mibach. >> We start with that shooting in the city of Oakland. KTVU has learned the homeowner who shot and killed a burglary suspect has been arrested, and he remains behind bars. >> While the Da considers whether to file charges. New at five tonight, KTVU is Henry Lee joins us now. He's in Oakland where this case could go from here to tell us where it could go from here. Henry >> Yeah, I've learned the 77 year old homeowner has been arrested on suspicion of murder, but it remains to be seen as to whether he'll be formally charged and whether this is a case of self-defense. A burglary suspect was shot by a resident near 98th Avenue and Burr Street in East Oakland. Oakland firefighters and paramedics worked to save the suspect, but he died at the scene. Now, I've learned the 77 year old homeowner is in jail, arrested by Oakland police on suspicion of murder. It happened just before six on Monday evening. Authorities say two men and a woman pulled up to the home in the stolen Infiniti Q40. A witness told police the three went on to the property and that one of the men had a crowbar. That witness then reported hearing a gunshot.

No charges have been filed against the homeowner pending a review by the Alameda County DA's office.

Prosecutors have until Thursday to decide whether to charge him. I've learned he declined to talk to investigators. >> You're not supposed to chase them if you chase them and shoot them. For example, in the back, that is unlawful. But KTVU legal analyst Michael Cardoza says depending on the facts, the homeowner could still argue self-defense. If you are an imminent fear of your life or someone else's life in your home , you have every right to take necessary means of self-defense against the invaders. >> So clearly, the circumstances leading up to the shooting are still under investigation. If this case is charged by the Da, ultimately it will be up to the
