That attempt failed, however, and the suspect ran around to the back of the home and tried getting in through a window.

That's when the homeowner let off a single gunshot in his direction, forcing the burglar to flee.

Authorities are now looking for Collins and consider him to be armed and dangerous.

Anonymous tipsters can call Broward Crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS and are eligible for up to $3,000 cash for information leading to an arrest.
