Arrested Burglars Chased by Victim

A La Porte County man returned home to find two burglars inside and gave chase.

 

He didn’t catch them but recently they were taken into custody.

 

According to La Porte County Police, brothers Jacob and Daniel Sutton were inside a home last month in the 6200 block of N. Fail Road when the resident and his juvenile son returned to find them inside.

 

The man gave chase but was injured and the suspects got away, police said. 

 

However, the suspects were captured by a nearby surveillance camera and the footage resulted in their arrests this week. 

 

Police said the brothers in their 20’s parked a car belonging to their grandmother at a nearby church and made their way on foot to the home they were burglarizing.

 

The brother face a possible two to 12 year sentence on a Level 4 felony charge of burglary.
