From Desloge, Missouri<\/a><\/p>\n

On Saturday at approximately 4 a.m. deputies with the Crawford County Sheriff\u2019s Department responded to the 1000 block of Possum Hollow Rd. in rural Bourbon for a reported burglary in progress.<\/p>\n

According to a press release, deputies were told by the homeowner that someone had forced their way into his house. The home owner told the deputies he was in fear for his life and fired a weapon at the subject who had forced his way into the home. The unidentified man, whom the homeowner shot, then fled the scene in an unidentified vehicle.<\/p>\n

Approximately 45 minutes later, Crawford County deputies were called to the Sullivan Mobil station for a report of a victim of a gunshot wound.<\/p>\n

By that time officers arrived on the scene [the wounded criminal] was already deceased.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Albuquerque, New Mexico<\/a>;<\/p>\n

In the security video, [Mark] Thompson is seen casually walking into a North Valley home on Sunday afternoon, putting on a jacket, wandering around, then turning on the TV.<\/p>\n

At one point, he even grabs a beer from the fridge. The homeowner got an alert that there was movement in his home. He watched Thompson on his phone and called his neighbor.<\/p>\n

Shandra Vestal lives across the street from that homeowner and didn\u2019t hesitate to help.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went to my garage, my husband and I. We got two pistols. We met him at the cul-de-sac. He blocked off the entry of the cul-de-sac to make sure if he did have a vehicle, the man entering the home wouldn\u2019t be able to escape,\u201d she said. \u201cAs he pulled in, I passed him this 45 and then I got the other Ruger.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when the woman, her husband, and the homeowner confronted Thompson.<\/p>\n

\u201cMicah and I went into the home with two of the loaded weapons. Micah announced himself to the perpetrator saying, \u2018I have a loaded weapon, get down on your hands and knees,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cAt that time, I came up behind him and we got the individual on his hands and knees to lay down.\u201d<\/p>\n

At that point, they made sure he had no way of escaping.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe got his arms and his feet duct taped. Then we picked him up, carried him out to the front yard and waited for the police to show up,\u201d said Vestal.<\/p>\n

When police showed up, they found Thompson on the ground, his hands and ankles taped.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe police had told us that the home prior that he had broken into. He was wearing the same clothes he had stolen from that home when he broke into Micah\u2019s house,\u201d Vestal said.<\/p>\n

This time, Thompson tried to talk his way out of trouble.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe truly said, \u2018I\u2019m not trying to steal anything, I just want to be friends,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
