If you’re a scumbag burglar, what would be more humiliating – being thwarted by a 91 year old brandishing a weapon, or being thwarted by a naked 91 year old brandishing a weapon?

He got more than he bargained for when he decided to mess with this
elderly man and his trusty rottweiler mix. Robert Thompson, 91, and his
5-year-old dog, Rett, tag-teamed a thug trying to break into their Lake
Worth home Friday night.

“I think the guy was scared to death,” Thompson said. “He was screaming.”

Thompson jumped out of bed, totally naked, and went to go check things out with Rett by his side.

“I started to let him out the door, and he was so anxious he got caught in the door,” he said.

According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, 26-year-old
Jose Pascual was the man on the porch. Rett pinned Pascual, but this
Purple Heart World War II veteran wanted back-up.

“I went in and got my cell phone and dialed 911 and got my gun,” he said.

Hmmmm…. on a side note, any bets on the immigration status of Jose Pascual?
