   Burglary
Description of Bad Guy(s):
  Unnamed burglar, who stole a window A/C unit from a home and was attempting to carry it away
Description of Good Guy(s):
  Unnamed homeowner, who caught the thief and shot at him, causing the thief to drop the A/C and begin running. The homeowner gave chase as he called police. Other neighbors also helped out.
Type of Gun Used:
  Handgun
Outcome:
  Police used a canine to locate and positively ID the burglar; when asked why he was stealing the A/C unit, the burglar responded back with, "I needed it." That's cool; I need a new Corvette; maybe I'll just go steal one. The homeowner's gun was legal. No one was injured by the gunfire and the homeowner has not been charged with any crime

  1. It was a non-working a/c unit. That's hilarious/terrible.
