Police arrested a 43-year-old Detroit man who attempted to break into Kid Rock's home.

The man, who has not been identified, was arrested at his home north of Detroit after the singer offered a $5,000 reward to anyone who could provide information on him.

Prior to his arrest, Kid Rock posted surveillance images of the suspect  - who was notably wearing crutches during the attempted burglary - on his website and stated that he is an 'avid hunter and marksman' and 'will not hesitate to shoot anyone' who threatens his family.

'Don't mess with a mother****** like me,' the singer, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, wrote.

The suspect rammed a white van through the gate to Kid Rock's lakefront home in Clarkston, Michigan around 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Police have recovered and impounded the van. Wearing a baseball cap and a blue sweater, he then tried to break into a building on the property.  

'Thank God I was not on the property at the time of this attempted break in,' Kid Rock wrote. 'I am an avid hunter and marksman and I will not hesitate to shoot anyone who has myself or family in fear for our lives.'

'I take the invasion of my personal space very seriously regardless of who you are and YES, I do profile people,' he added. 'I am currently profiling any balding white male on crutches driving a white creeper van.'

As opposed to Michael Moore who would announce that he would be in his well stocked pantry.....er “safe room”.

I still get a giggle out of the fact that Uncle Kracker is another conservative leaner from the Detroit music scene.

As a side note, they guy isn't even close to Detroit.....

If he’s a white guy, he is fair game. The worst that could come of it is that an all black jury might sentence you to two years of hip hop.

Awesome song and a great guy. I never would have thought that when he first came onto the music scene.

[cripplecreek]

Uncle Kracker is another good one discovered in Detroit by Kid Rock.

They aren't for me but the White Stripes are another modern band out of Detroit.

[When do we get liberated?]

It was a white guy. Obama is now 100 percent black since his second term. He wouldn’t say anything.

Kid Rock must be one of them crazy ass crackers./s
