Police identify 'intruder' shot inside LaPorte County home

The LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office has identified the man shot to death inside a home southeast of LaPorte yesterday morning.

42-year-old Jacob Borders is described by police as a, “intruder”.

A man, woman and one juvenile who live at the home in the 20-thousand block of State Road 4 were unhurt.

LaPorte County investigators are still gathering information and will forward the case to the prosecutor’s office for review.
