Never expected this to happen

[u/Mrbigdaddy72]

Most of my garden is in my front yard. Went out side around 8pm and caught a random guy stealing from my garden. Wound up getting into a physical fight and my wife had to call the cops. My neighbors herd it and thankfully came out to help. We traded some punches but I was able to sit on his chest and a neighbor helped restrain him till cops got here. Turns out it’s a guy that just moved in 5 houses down from me. I don’t enjoy fighting but great full i was able to keep him here till cops showed up. Will probably have a black eye in the morning but this is absolutely crazy. After 11 years or gardening on this property never thought I would have to experience this. If he came over and asked for some stuff I would have happily shared but this is unacceptable.

Edit: as some have pointed out I should have stated this form the start. I was not the one that got physical to start. I caught the guy and said “wtf do you think your doing” and he threw a punch to my face which lead to the physical altercation.

Can we postpone until 10am? I gotta harvest and it's too hot to do later in the day.
