I just happened to be doing some daily Facebook cruising when I noticed a story posted by an Ohio news station. The title said something about Alabama and there were two people holding guns. INSTANT CLICK. I’m looking at those links every single time. I don’t care what’s on the other end of the click. If I see a guy holding a gun and wearing a crimson shirt, alerts start going off in my head.
And look what I found today.
We have a story out of Warrior, AL where a family had been burglarized…and just happened to catch the suspects while WBRC 6 was interviewing the victims.
While deputies were still on the scene investigating the second burglary, the Wyatts called the sheriff’s office to say they had found the suspects who broke into their home and were holding them at gunpoint.
Sarah Wyatt said that by chance, her husband Chris and other relatives recognized the suspects and apprehended them on Sunday afternoon.
“They happened to drive by and we seen them drive by and we knew it was them and we stopped them,” Chris Wyatt said.
The sheriff’s office says Wyatt followed the suspects’ vehicle as they turned down Gobbler’s Knob Mine Road and blocked them in. He and his friends then held them at gunpoint until deputies could get to the scene, Christian said.
Chris Wyatt said the suspects claimed they were lost when the Wyatts confronted them.
Warrior is on I-65, just 24 miles north of Birmingham. That’s an area where you’ll find Bama fans packing heat and not taking any chances with burglars. The great thing about Bama fans is that they always seem to be wearing Bama gear during important moments in life.
