PA:Man Makes Citizen's Arrest at Gunpoint


Police say a Montgomery County man who thought someone was breaking into his neighbor’s car made a citizen's arrest, holding the man at gunpoint. Investigators say the man wasn’t there to steal anything but confessed that he was about to commit another crime.

“It was unusual to say the least,” said Abington Deputy Police Chief John Livingood.

Investigators say the gun-toting homeowner saw the man sitting inside the driver’s seat of his neighbor’s black Honda parked at a home on the 500 block of Abington Avenue around 11:30 p.m. Sunday. The homeowner, armed with the gun, approached the man and asked him why he was in the car.
