Florida Father Body-Slams & Hogties Man Who Tried To Break Into His Home

With a lot of people working from their house during these times of the pandemic, probably not the best move to go breaking into homes. But of course, a lot of these criminals won't be mistaken for Rhodes Scholars.

Jacquelyn Gonsalez say their had an “unwanted visitor try to get in” their Jacksonville, Florida home this week.

Her ring camera caught the man, later identified as Lance Erickson, trying to break into her home.

First she called the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO), then she called her husband, Aaron.

Aaron tells FirstCoastNews.com:

“so I got a call from my wife, a guy was trying to break into the house.Drove around, came across the guy… got him to the ground… didn’t know the best thing to do so decided to tie him up.

The report continues:

When asked if he hogtied the suspect, Aaron laughed and said, "yes."
And that’s the second part of the Facebook post that has hundreds of shares.
With the suspect tied up and on the ground, they waited for JSO to arrive.
“He basically body-slammed the guy and tied him up in our neighbor’s yard,” Gonsalez said.
He says it was past job experience on the docks of Jacksonville that helped him catch the man.
“I used to work on a tug boat so I have a lot of practice with tying knots and things like that… a lot of that experience came back into play," he said.

According to the arrest report, Erickson was charged with disorderly intoxication and endangering the property of others.
