Burglar hogtied by Tulsa, Okla., homeowner and left on front lawn for police
The Houstons saw their daughter's window had been broken, and then heard sounds from their garage. Denay Houston's husband then pounced on the burglar and tied his arms behind his back with a rope - a skill developed from his years of working with horses.
Police were called to a Tulsa, Okla. home on Wednesday morning and found 31-year-old burglary suspect Robert Cole hogtied on the lawn.
All he needed was a bow.
A Tulsa, Okla., homeowner practically gift-wrapped a present for local police Wednesday when he hogtied a burglary suspect and put him on his front lawn.
Denay Houston said that she and her husband, noticed that their daughter's window had been broken early Wednesday morning, and then heard sounds coming from the couple's garage.
Houston's husband then pounced on the unsuspecting alleged thief and quickly tied his arms behind his back with a rope.
"He's like a superhero," Denay Houston told NewsOn6.
Houston's husband then forced the man to the ground, hogtied him on the couple's lawn, called police, and went off to work.
That's just the type of person he is, you know? That's just the type of person he is. Business is business. 'I got to take care of business, he's safe, the police are coming, I got to go,'" said Houston, who is nine months pregnant.
When police arrived at the scene, they found 31-year-old Robert Cole where Houston had left him, and arrested him on one charge of first degree burglary.
Houston's wife attributed his skill with rope to his years of working with horses.
Cole is being held at the Tulsa County jail, and his bail has been set at $32,079.

I love that he ties him up and just goes to work.
