On 28 April, at about 9:30 p.m. in Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin, an armed employee captured a burglary suspect. It was the result of digital surveillance, an active business owner, and a diligent, armed employee.
The owner's fiancee was notified of the intrusion by a NEST video system. The owner and two employees were only a few blocks away from the business.
The employee who was legally armed, waited outside the business while the owner searched the inside. The search flushed the suspect into the area covered by the employee, who then placed the suspect under citizen's arrest.
The Ashwaubenon police were very happy with the result. From fox11online.com:
Ashwaubenon Public Safety applauded the employees actions.
Were very satisfied with what happened, said Ashwaubenon Public Safety Capt. Jody Crocker. The situation here was that the burglar couldve gotten away. The concealed carry holder did exactly what he should do. This was a felony in progress. He also complied with officers as soon as they arrived and did everything right,
Conceal carry holders are trained on how and when to use their weapons, and this outcome could not have gone better, said Crocker.
Police are identified the suspect as 31-year-old Eric Elm of Minnesota. They say he is wanted for an extradition warrant out of Minnesota for burglary.
This isn't the first time police have praised legal gun owners for exercising their rights and capturing criminals.

Nice work, citizen.
If you do this to an illegal near the border, you go to jail and get your bank accounts pulled.
I had a good friend that captured a guy, peeping in peoples windows, dressed as a Ninja, armed with Nunchucks, throwing stars and a crossbow. laid down on him with a .45 and Mr. Ninja gave up. My Bud got an award from the Nashville Police department.
I'm not so sure about that. Now the citizens get to pay for food and lodging for this criminal for an unspecified amount of time. Granted, most folks probably don't think the death penalty should be meeted out for the crime of burglary. I figure it would save us all a lot of time and effort in the long run.
And if they would have shot the burglar because he decided to run away, the cops would have arrested them instead.
The suspect will be extradited to Minnesota. So Minnesota taxpayers will pay for the incarceration.
Surrender all to the invader or lose even more.
