From my hometown newspaper:
A Maysville man, tired of having his house broken into, set a trap for and captured a burglary suspect in the act last Thursday.Tony Smith was fed up.
After three consecutive burglaries at his West Freeman Street residence, Smith lay in wait for the burglar, who he knew was a neighbor.
He parked his truck away from the house and lay in wait, but on his first attempt he fell asleep. The burglar saw him and fled.Things worked out better Thursday morning.
James Welch, 28, allegedly jimmied the front door with a plastic card, entered the house and found Smith confronting him with a pistol. Welch lives two doors down from Smith.
Man, I miss the country!
