OAKLAND, Calif. (KTVU) - - A neighborhood in the Oakland Hills is tense, after an armed burglar broke into a home Wednesday, and shot a person in the chest.

It happened at about 5:30 p.m. on Chimney Rock, near Skyline Boulevard.

The home is also near the Sequoyah Country Club and its golf course.
