SAN FRANCISCO -- A man suspected of breaking into a Fell Street apartment Tuesday afternoon found himself tumbling down stairs and running from a hail of bullets after the resident interrupted the burglary, San Francisco police said.
The alleged burglar, whose name has not been released, remained in surgery with several gunshot wounds some eight hours after the 1 p.m. incident, Officer Maria Oropeza said.

The man apparently was shot with the gun he brought to the home near Fell and Scott streets, and the home's resident, 29-year-old Harvey Williams, has been arrested on assault charges, Oropeza said.
Williams "came home and confronted the suspect at the front door," Oropeza said. "The suspect pulled a gun on the resident, and there was a struggle for the gun."
The struggle continued down the stairs, she said, with some shots being fired before the men -- and the gun -- landed on the sidewalk.

"The resident picks up the gun, it apparently accidentally goes off," Oropeza continued. "He chases the suspect, shooting at him several times. The suspect falls to the ground at Fell and Scott, where the resident holds him at gunpoint and waits for the police."
It was on the sidewalk, as the alleged burglar was running away, that Williams' actions turned from self-defense to assault with a deadly weapon, Oropeza explained.
The suspect will face charges of burglary, robbery, carrying a concealed weapon and carrying a loaded firearm, Oropeza said.
Williams was not hurt in the incident, Oropeza said.
