Criminal Is Defeated by Armed Homeowner

A criminal in Tulsa, Okla. crashed a stolen tow truck into an occupied suv
and fled the scene as police were on their way. The thief then broke
into a nearby home, only to be confronted by an armed homeowner.

The homeowner opened fire on the home invader, striking the burglar
in both legs and incapacitating him until police could arrive.
Police pieced together the two incidents and brought the criminal
to a nearby hospital, where after release he will face charges of
possession of a stolen vehicle, leaving the scene of an injury
accident and first-degree burglary.

This wasn’t the home invader’s first brush with law enforcement.
An investigation revealed that the criminal has several prior convictions,
which include grand larceny, possessing a stolen vehicle and pointing a gun.
