Saturday feel good story

Our feel good story this morning comes from California;

Sheriff’s investigators say that 23-year-old Kristopher Randi was arrested after being sniffed out by a K-9 unit in a Jamestown home. As reported earlier this month, deputies were already on the lookout for Randi, who was wanted on several drug warrants.

The incident unfolded last night when sheriff’s deputies were called to a home on the 18000 Block of Seco Street in Jamestown around 6:25 p.m. for a report of a homeowner who had just “shot a burglar.”

Once on the scene, the male homeowner told deputies he had shot a male intruder who “ran at” him when confronted. The owner says he shot the the intruder in the leg and the man ran out of the home. The homeowner told deputies he had the gun because of a previous burglary on his property.

Deputies began to search the area near the home and received information that the suspect may be Randi. That led deputies to a home on the 18000 block of 5th Ave in Jamestown, where residents denied Randi was in the home, but according to detectives, agreed to a search of the house. Deputies brought in the K-9 dog, Justice, who found Randi hiding. Investigators say Randi resisted arrest and was bitten by Justice.

“Bitten by Justice” – they should tattoo that on his forehead.

Here’s another from Alabama;

A truck driver who was working in the area and witnessed the burglary says he saw a white Suburban truck pull up in front of the house and back into the driveway.

The truck driver said he saw two young black males walk into the side door of the home. He reportedly heard gunshots a few minutes later.

According to the witness, one of the men came out of the house, jumped off the porch and ran behind the house. The other one ducked down beside the truck and eventually drove away, the witness said.

Police believe the suspect driving the Suburban picked up the other suspect who had been shot and dropped him off at Trinity Medical Center.

Law enforcement put out an alert for the white Suburban and caught the second suspect, who is now in custody.

And a third one from Georgia;

The homeowner confronted the burglar after returning to his home in the 4800 block of Hairston Crossing Place at around 10:30 p.m. Police say the homeowner shot and killed the suspect, but was also shot a couple of times.

The victim was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. His condition is not known at this time.
