TULSA, Oklahoma -

Police are searching for a burglar who was shot multiple times. He was caught in the act by a homeowner, who showed no mercy.

The burglar was taken to the hospital on October 12, but now he's essentially disappeared. Police have already arrested one man for the burglary and now they're searching for Michael Watts.

The homeowner who shot Watts said it's a shame that Watts broke into his house looking for gold and left full of lead.

Watts had surgery and disappeared.

Now, detectives have issued an arrest warrant for him.

"The problem with burglary is almost always, if you continue doing burglaries, you're either going to end up harming someone or someone's going to end up harming you. That's already happened to Mr. Watts," said Tulsa Police Detective JB Bennett.

“I took care of that problem el pronto mucho fasto,” Sweeny said”

Now there is a quote that ranks right up there with “make my day”. With a little Spanish lingo no less.

I liked this quote "He tore apart my back door to get in and he sailed out my bedroom window to get out,

Bet Mr Sweeny could provide some interesting stories.
