MEDFORD, Ore. -- A 41-year-old woman wasn't going to let a man get away with her TV.

Medford Police responded to an interrupted burglary call at 12:35 a.m. Sunday in the 600 block of North Berkeley Way.

The victim got home and found a 23-year-old man in her bedroom trying to flee toward the window, according to a press release from the Medford Police Department.

She grabbed the suspect and a fight ensued. She yelled for help and her 23-year-old daughter called for help. The daughter had been asleep.

When police arrived, they found the victim fighting with the suspect near the home's front door. She was able to subdue him.

The suspect was arrested and taken to the Jackson County Jail. Police say the suspect did have injuries to his head, face, back, chest and arm. He did not require immediate medical attention.

Police found the victim's TV and stereo equipment outside the bedroom window. They were returned.

Author of this piece seems able correctly to identify "the victim" and "the suspect".

Quite the novelty ...

It is an improvement over the MSM norm, but I’d prefer “would-be burglar” and “wouldn’t-be victim”.

Well, when you find and confront the individual.....and you give him that steady and steely eye.....and say “My 4Runner is Inyo-MonToyota. You stole it. Prepare to die!”....grab onto something, because the vacuum he'll be creating by his rapid exit will require steadying.

Not only does he go down for a major felony, but he has to go suffer the male indignity of gettin’ beat up by a girl.
