Burglary suspect calls 911 after Springtown homeowner holds him at gunpoint

In a strange flip of events, a burglary suspect called 911 early Tuesday to report that he was being held at gunpoint by a Springtown homeowner and his son.

The homeowner called 911, too, but by then he was in control, holding him at gunpoint and demanding to know what he was doing in his home.

“Just unlucky, I guess,” the man responded, according to a release from the Parker County Sheriff’s Department.

Who said guns were useless?
