Police described Burkett 5"10 and 140 pounds.

Send him to Oz. I'm sure Schillinger will have some fun with him.

Awesome! She may have a rodeo career is she's inclined.

And the humiliation for the perp. LOL!

[cake_crumb]

Way to go girl! You may have just started a new rodeo event: PERP WRESTLING!! Just like steer and calf wrestling, but no horse. Just chase 'em down on foot, rope 'em and tie all four legs to...tie their hands and feet together in 7 seconds flat.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Personally, I think she should be prosecuted for violating the perp's civil right to steal.

[aculeus]

Hog-tied ping.

[Coop]

I think I'm in love!

[Mamzelle]

PICTURES, please!

[oust the louse]

If I'm Jason's dad,I beat him to a pulp for letting that girl have his way with him....(kidding of course).

[Billthedrill]

Not to be pedantic - well, OK, to be pedantic - it's "longe line," not "lunge." Durn city-slicker reporters.

The kid's lucky. In this part of town it costs big money to get tackled and hog-tied by a purty lady...

[Our man in washington]

Rope Control Inc. issued a statement shortly thereafter that people are "26 more likely to use a rope to tie up a loved one than an intruder. Therefore, a civilized society has no choice but to ban rope."

[I Drive Too Fast]

Noticing the town's name, could an alternate title be "Kin sits on purp's Hiney?" (Beer joke alert)

[Pagey]

Of all the people that deserve to have their picture in a newspaper,or on TV, they stiff this girl who did something POSITIVE in her life.

[A_perfect_lady]

Now, see? If she'd had a gun, she wouldn't have had to get her feet dirty! (-:

[r9etb]

I think that, during his jail term, Mr. Burkett's going to regret having been captured this way.

[crystalk]

110 pound 15 yr old female, ties up 140 pound 18 year old male.

This ought to put an end for awhile to claims that America's youth are too fat. Doesn't anybody FEED these kids in Ohio?

PS for every fat KID that I see around, I see about a dozen that look emaciated...

[FreedomCalls]

You go girl!

[Owl4USA]

Fiesty Cowgirl bump

[afraidfortherepublic]

My favorite sotry of the day, although this could have been a dangerous manoever for this young lady. But it does lift your spirits to read about this kid. I recommend a career in the airlines for her because she would take any s##t from a hijacker.

[cynicom]

Assult with a deadly rope. Bring her up on charges.

[LibKill]

Oh baby! The next time there's a fracas I want her for backup.
