TULSA, Oklahoma -
A Tulsa man is in jail after being captured and hog-tied by his would-be victim, according to Tulsa Police.
Tulsa Police say Kalvin Hulvey, 35, was arrested Monday afternoon and booked into the Tulsa County jail on a complaint of larceny of a motor vehicle.
Jeremy Penny, of Tulsa, spotted the suspect stealing his car, followed him, and yanked him out of the car. Then he and his father hog-tied him and suspended him on a nearby fence until police arrived.
Penny was with his brother and father baling hay Monday in a Tulsa field off North Garnett, when he spotted Hulvey stealing his 1997 Buick LeSabre.
"Saw the guy walking, but didn't pay him any mind," said Penny. "Then I looked back and I saw him taking off in my car."
Penny and his dad got in another truck and chased the driver to an intersection, where they all got caught up in traffic.
"I was really mad when I drove up next to him and he was changing my radio station," said Penny.
The 6-foot-5-inches, 240-pound Penny then yanked Hulvey out of the car. Then he and his father hog-tied Hulvey and secured him to a fence until police arrived.
"I rodeo, we both rodeo," said Penny. "But here lately, I've been having bad luck keeping calves tied, so he did the tying up. That way we made sure he stayed tied."

That was great. Thanks for that.
Looks like the TV station made him cover up a logo on his shirt with duct tape. No free advertising for you!
Always a pleasure.
Pettiness, thy name is MSM.
Thank you for my first excessively loud guffaw (followed by serial guffaws approx. 6 on the Richter scale) of the day!
I knew A guy in college that used to amuse himself by sitting in front of his dorm and roping girls as they walked by.
Most were amused and he never lacked dates.
Damn, I wish I’d thought of that.
Mr Penny deserves the thanks, but I’m honored to be the messenger.
You’re right fieldmarshaldj, it’s true. I just wanted to savor the moment without remembering what the media would do had it been the other way around. No put-down intended.
Naw, I was busy roping some runaway sheet metal down here in Dallas .. LOL
I know.
I wonder if one of those gals roped him in and tied him down permanently. :)
Sorry I posted and had to run. Hubby had surgery early yesterday to replace his DeFib. The battery ran down on his old one after 9 years. It was outpatient surgery and he came home. He’s doing okay, but sore today. Pray that all is well with you and yours.
LOL!
Cowboys rule!
Yippy-ki-yay...
Hope your husband is doing better after his outpatient fix. Positive vibes and prayers for him.
Thank you FRiend. He seems to be doing okay.
