That's what I was thinking. Reserving any physical harm by gun, knife, truncheon or whatever for when or if he should attempt to kick in the door.
However, we really don't know all the specifics.
Although, I am assuming that if the homeowner possessed a weapon prior to entering the garage, he knew someone was in there. Therefore, I would agree that I would wait inside the house with weapon ready and wait until law enforcement arrives. And, even at that point, I would have not fired or struck until I was certain the intruder was a clear threat. But, I would not have proceeded into the garage.
