vWPXI-TV first reported that investigators say Hiles was arrested a few blocks away, carrying a screwdriver and a stun gun. He's being held on $100,000 bail on charges including criminal trespass and burglary./QUOTE]

A screw driver and a stun gun! The scum should also be charged with attempted murder...

Why is it even necessary to say this: "Authorities said they don't expect to bring any charges against Ricciutti."?

Thats awesome......but where does it say he used his service weapon?

I love that the family came and apologized. If this was in Florida the family would be suing and the media would make the burglar a victim.
