montgomery, ala. - adrian and tiffany mckinnon returned home on tuesday after a week away to find that thieves had emptied almost everything the family of five owned, tiffany mckinnon said through tears. "tears just rolled down my face as i walked in and saw everything gone and piles of trash all over my home," she said. adrian mckinnon sent his wife to see her sister while he inspected the piles left behind. as he walked back into the sunroom, a man walked through the back door straight into him. "my husband adrian caught the thief red-handed in our home," she said. "and what is even crazier, the man even had my husband's hat sitting right on his head." adrian mckinnon held the suspect, 33-year-old tajuan bullock, at gunpoint and told him to sit on the floor until he decided what to do. "we made this man clean up all the mess he made, piles of stuff, he had thrown out of my drawers and cabinets onto the floor," tiffany mckinnon said. when police arrived, bullock complained about being forced to clean the home at gunpoint. "this man had the nerve to raise sand about us making him clean up the mess he made in my house," she said. "the police officer laughed at him when he complained and said anybody else would have shot him dead." source
florida — a burglar early this morning clambered over a backyard fence on a quiet block on the city's west side. he picked the wrong house. he made it maybe a couple of steps before rettt the dog, a mixture of rottweiler and doberman pinscher, charged, tearing the intruder's shirt from his back in a growling, ferocious attack. this gave homeowner robert e. thompson, 91, time to jump out of bed, grab his gun, a .38-caliber revolver loaded with hollow-point bullets, and to phone the police. then he went out back to let the guy know how he felt about home invaders. he raised the gun and shouted out in the darkness. he thought there might be three or four of them. he didn't care. "the funny part was i didn't have any clothes on," said thompson, a world war ii veteran who was awarded a purple heart during combat tours in europe. "i was standing out there with a .38 in my hand, and i was stark naked." already terrified of the dog, the burglar, who looked to be no older than 20, took a step toward the nude 91-year-old, and that was it for thompson. "i fired a warning shot," he said, and the burglar froze. "i wasn't going to let the guy get within six or eight feet of me. he spoke only spanish, and i couldn't understand anything he was saying. i think he was more scared than i was, really." and so they stayed that way, the hapless young burglar, who appeared, authorities said later, to be very drunk, and the naked old homeowner, his head cool, his revolver leveled, until palm beach county sheriff's deputies showed up. thompson would've made it out of the whole ordeal completely unscathed if, when the deputies told him to drop the gun, it hadn't accidentally gone off, sending a tiny bullet fragment ricocheting off the concrete pool deck and into thompson's right shin. he barely felt it, but the deputies called paramedics and insisted he get checked out at delray medical center. he was back home by midday, recounting the incident. the burglar, who identified himself as jose pasqual, 26, of no fixed address was booked into the palm beach county jail on a burglary charge. "i have a real bad feeling about these guys. i don't tolerate them. i would've shot him if he kept coming," thompson said. "you've got to protect yourself." source
