Marshall County Sheriff Scott Walls reports that a man caught burgling a
home didn't get far after pursuing deputies got a little bovine help on
their side.
Walls said an Arab, Alabama, man caught a man and woman burgling his
home on Wednesday morning. The homeowner called the sheriff's office
then chased them off his property. County deputies and Arab police
officers found the suspects' Chevrolet truck shortly after.
Deputies say the suspects led them on a pursuit until they crashed in the Union Grove area. They both fled on foot. The driver, 26-year-old Brad Lynn Hemby, fled across a cow pasture and grabbed the attention of a bull that was roaming the field. The sheriff's office reports that the bull gave chase along with deputies.
They said Hemby tried to elude the bull but fell into a barbed wire fence and immediately surrendered to deputies. Hemby was arrested and charged with burglary, criminal mischief and attempting to elude a police officer. His female companion got away in a wooded area. She has not yet been located. After the arrest, deputies recovered stolen property from the suspects' vehicle. Bond has not been set at this time.
