An armed homeowner drove a fleeing suspect into the hands of North Carolina deputies after threatening a trespasser in his house with his firearm, according to reports from Lee County, N.C.
Local deputies from the Lee County narcotics division were executing a search warrant in Sanford, N.C., when the suspect fled from his property, entering a nearby wooded area and then breaking into a nearby occupied residence. The owner of the house the suspect broke into was armed and confronted the intruder, forcing him to flee. The suspect was then captured by local law-enforcement officials.

Grocer Ralph Miller handed $315 to the knife-wielding robber who confronted him in his Glen Burnie, Md. store. But when the man turned to leave, Miller pulled out a revolver and fired two shots that wounded the thief. The suspect fled but was arrested a short time later. (The Baltimore Sun; Baltimore, Md.)
