EAGLE POINT, Ore. -- A man on a horse chased down and lassoed a suspected thief at the Eagle Point Walmart, according to witnesses.

Police say that a woman was yelling about her bike being stolen and a nearby man unloaded a horse from a trailer, lassoed the man and pulled him back toward the store. They say that the man grabbed onto a tree and wouldn't let go.

Eagle Point Police arrived on scene and arrested the man, identified as 22-year-old Victorino Arellano-Sanchez.

-—In the old days,-—

is a bike different than a horse? They hang horse thieves , don’t they

[HiTech RedNeck]

That used to be the custom

You just wonder what was going through the moron’s head...hanging onto the tree as the cops get ready to pounce?

Did he think he could get back on the stolen bike and ride away?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Not saying it was the holiest thing in the world (the bible never called for death penalties for thievery, even though pagan societies commonly did it).

Still they got him fair and square. This picture should be published all over the internet, it is kind of what the pillory of old was intended for, shameful crimes like this.

Ride ‘em cowboy! Yeehawww!!! What’s that hombre’s immigration status, pardner? ;)

If the culprit victim is illeagal undocumented, the cowboy will probably be arrested and the woman whose bike was stolen who refused to share her bike, will be charged with disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace, for screaming.

Should have thrown the end of rope over a light post.

How the West was won. :)

Today, I'm beginning to think the west was never really won.
We just delayed the inevitable.

Another dreamer dreaming about a bike. Just like Pee Wee’s Big Adventure. Hmmmm Victorino’s big adventure.

When my brother and I were boys, we usually extracted the Rocky Mountain Oysters at the same time we did the branding.

Dang.

[Old Yeller]

Too bad he didn’t have a branding iron that said “POS”.
