It all started when the Houstons heard the glass break outside their daughter's bedroom at around 6am. "That folding chair was in her bedroom, shattered glass all over the place, and I said, 'A raccoon didn't do that.' And he was just like, 'Oh God,'" Denay Houston said. They heard rustling inside the garage and Houston's husband went to the front door.

"And then he waited for him to come out and then he bum-rushed him," she said. "He's like a superhero," she said of her husband. As soon as Cole was tied up, Houston said her husband turned to her and said he had to leave, had to go work. So, he called police and let his wife watch over his catch.
"That's just the type of person he is, you know? That's just the type of person he is. Business is business. 'I got to take care of business, he's safe, the police are coming, I got to go,'" Denay Houston said. Robert Cole faces one charge of first degree burglary. Police at the scene say he appeared to be on drugs. He is being held at the Tulsa County jail in lieu of $32,079 bond.

Not sure I want to know what "he bum rushed him" means...
haha, it basically means he charged/ran at him.
I would be curious to if the home owner may actually get in trouble for tying him up. The thief may actually have the option of pressing charges against the homeowner depending on the local laws.
"$32,079 bond."
"Your Honor, defense requests that bond be lowered to $32,029.50."
Wonder how they came up with that figure?

No. In the southern part of the U.S., we haven't yet lost our minds. He'll be arraigned, tried, and sent to prison. You know... the way it's supposed to work.
