OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. – A man arrested on the Fourth of July in Osceola County is accused of burglarizing a woman’s house before being shot by the homeowner’s son, according to the sheriff’s office.

Deputies responded around 8:30 p.m. to the home along Deer Run Road, where the homeowner’s son was holding the alleged burglar — Mitchell Platt, 37 — at gunpoint after shooting him in the leg.

The homeowner’s son had noticed a rear door was left open and armed himself with a revolver after then entering the home and reportedly hearing strange noises, the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.

After the man called out to see if anyone else was in the home, Platt allegedly emerged from a hallway and charged toward him, prompting the man to fire a single shot into Platt’s leg, the release states.

The man who fired the shot was not injured, investigators said.

Platt faces charges of burglary of an occupied dwelling and possession of burglary tools, records show. He was hospitalized for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, released, arrested, and is being held on no bond at the time of this writing.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the sheriff’s office’s non-emergency line at 407-348-2222.
