Couple Make Burglar Clean Up At Gunpoint (thief complains to cops)
Couple Make Burglar Clean Up At Gunpoint

MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- A burglar in Montgomery chose the wrong family to mess with, literally. Adrian and Tiffany McKinnon returned home on Tuesday after a week away to find that thieves had emptied almost everything the family of five owned, Tiffany McKinnon said through tears.

"Tears just rolled down my face as I walked in and saw everything gone and piles of trash all over my home," she said.

....

"My husband Adrian caught the thief red-handed in our home," she said. "And what is even crazier, the man even had my husband's hat sitting right on his head."

Adrian McKinnon held the suspect, 33-year-old Tajuan Bullock, at gunpoint and told him to sit on the floor until he decided what to do.

"We made this man clean up all the mess he made, piles of stuff, he had thrown out of my drawers and cabinets onto the floor," Tiffany McKinnon said.

When police arrived, Bullock complained about being forced to clean the home at gunpoint.

2. LOL, that's great!
I certainly hoped the cops laughed at his sorry ass and then handed him a broom. Ripping off somebody's house is bad enough in and of itself. But trashing the place while you do so add a huge insult to the injury. Do you really have to empty out every drawer in the place to simply walk off with the TV and computer?

5. Sometimes you can't make up news this funny...
But you KNOW that he is going to sue this couple for mental anguish and cruelty.


Frankly I think he needs to take that experience and go out to clean the sides of the roads for 3-5 years.

7. you mean he didn't HAVE to shoot the intruder he found in his home????
oh my god, to hear some people talk around here, you'd think the only thing one can do (must do?) is to shoot and kill a person in your home.

this can't be true, no one can just hold a gun on an intruder and wait for the police! :sarcasm:

8. BWAHAHA
When police arrived, Bullock complained about being forced to clean the home at gunpoint.

"This man had the nerve to raise sand about us making him clean up the mess he made in my house," she said. "The police officer laughed at him when he complained and said anybody else would have shot him dead."


:rofl:

9. The thief should count himself lucky.
The homeowners could have curbstomped his sorry ass, and I wouldn't feel the slightest bit of pity for him. Now he whines because he was forced to clean up after his ransacking.
