14 Year Old Takes Bat to Would Be Burglar

14–year-old Michael Six of Mesa, Arizona foiled a would-be burglar in his Mesa home by whacking him twice with a baseball bat.

The ninth-grader heard his home being broken into, locked himself in his room and called 911.

When the burglar broke into his room and confronted him, Michael grabbed a baseball bat and smacked the low life in the lower back and shoulder. The big guy bailed out into the waiting arms of the Mesa Police department.

Police believe Thomas Gonzales Garza, 30, may be connected to other burglaries in the area. He is being held without bond on charges of suspicion of residential burglary, aggravated assault on a minor, criminal trespassing and criminal damage.

Nice work Michael!!
