JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. (WNDU) &#8211; How bold can a bad guy be?<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps a St. Joseph County homeowner found out last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s when Jim Hughes confronted a would-be catalytic converter thief in the driveway.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the size of the fence surrounding the property. Despite the posted no trespassing signs, two men moved in in broad daylight about 10:30 last Sunday morning and cut to the chase. One started cutting off the catalytic converter on a Jeep in the driveway.<\/p>\n<p>Jim Hughes grabbed his gun and confronted the men. \u201cI can tell you; I think my heart was about ready to jump out of my chest, my adrenaline was pumping so hard,\u201d Hughes told 16 News Now.<\/p>\n<p>At one point, Jim fired some warning shots into the air. That sent one man fleeing on foot, while another drove away in a blue Ford pickup.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>0 \/ 1 \/ 1<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wndu.com\/2021\/11\/18\/man-gets-caught-trying-steal-catalytic-converter\/\">WNDU<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8216;Career criminals&#8217;: Deputies shot suspects after driver sped directly at them, Polk County Sheriff says<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>MULBERRY, Fla. \u2014 Two suspects have been injured in a shooting involving Polk County Sheriff&#8217;s deputies, according to officials.<\/p>\n<p>County officials say it happened near the intersection of SR 60 West and Prairie Industrial Parkway.<\/p>\n<p>Judd said it started around 12:06 a.m. when James Hillburn fled from the Bowling Green Police Department.
