GREEN BAY, Wis. - Green Bay Packers running back Noah Herron thwarted a would-be burglar by hitting him with a bed post during a break-in at his home.
Brown County Sheriff Dennis Kocken said Tuesday that the break-in happened late last Friday and the injured the intruder remained hospitalized but is expected to recover.
"Noah Herron used necessary, reasonable and justifiable force in protecting his life and property," Kocken said in a statement. "Herron, the victim in this random home invasion, is cooperating with law enforcement."
Herron, 26, missed all of last season with a knee injury.
Chief Deputy John Gossage said Herron called police at 11:19 p.m. Friday after he heard glass breaking in the lower level of his suburban Green Bay home. He said an unknown number of people had entered the house.
One of the intruders entered Herron's bedroom, and Herron hit the person with a post he had unscrewed from his bed, Gossage said. Herron was not injured.
The injured burglar was taken to a hospital, and a second suspect was arrested outside the home, Gossage said.
Stolen property and a vehicle believed taken earlier Friday from another home were found near Herron's home, Gossage said. The two people in custody are suspects in numerous burglaries and home invasions throughout Brown County, he said.

Tell that little thief to come down here to Texas and apply his trade. We have free health care for his type: The Castle Law.
Well, I’m sure he didn’t go favre after Herron hit him...
O.J.? Is that you?
Favre would have no reason to hurt this guy. Besides, he’s down in Mississippi riding around on his tractor. ;)
Favre doesn’t even need to go after Aaron Rogers. Aaron hurts himself all the time without the help of anyone else, LOL!
It’s going to be a l-o-n-g season... *SIGH*
“Someone’s in my house! This bedpost will do nicely. Now I’ll just wait by the door here and ..... He’s Toast! Call 911!”
Maybe, but some liberal judge/jury will probably see that the perp gets off on a technicality. Should'a finished him off!

I don’t call 9-1-1, I call the Coroner.
Any relation to Mack Herron, former great running back with Sam Cunningham, of the Ner England Patriots in the late ‘70s/early’80s ?
Props to the former Steeler. Well done.
NECK: THE MAN HAS NONE.
For once a football player wasn’t committing the crime ...
When asked about it, Herrron said, “I didn’t think, I just reacted. When I saw the opening, I went straight for the post.”
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
...or a Viking.
That’s only on boats or stairwells...*
*unless you mean the ‘crime’ of calling themselves a ‘NFL caliber team’ in which case I agree.
Cheer up... if Aaron goes down... which is only a matter of time, Brett will show up. ; )
Good One!
