Cincinnati, Ohio (The Weekly Vice) - Lonnie Lane, a 30-year-old Ohio man was arrested Thursday for burglary - but not before homeowner Tiffany Friday delivered a little justice of her own.
According to police, Lane was burglarizing a house on Waverly Ave. when homeowner Tiffany Friday returned home to find he and another man inside her home.
Tiffany, who is a single mom, had been burglarized in November and again in December. This time, however, she decided she wasn't about to be a victim again.
"I was mad. I mean, they had took, taken everything from us. I mean, they took my daughter's games, my son's games, they took TV's, computers," said Friday.
When the two men ran from the house, Tiffany followed. The chase lead her through her backyard and into the woods behind her house. Knowing the lay of the land, she headed back to her house, jumped into a friend's car and took off after the suspect along with her friends.
Lane was spotted by Tiffany and her friend's as he was coming back out of the wood a short distance from her home. It was at that point Tiffany and her friends exited the vehicle and piled on Lane. Police arrived after Tiffany and company delivered a few punches to Lane's face to keep him subdued.
"I grabbed him by the back of his shirt and hit him in the woods," said Friday. "I never thought about what they could do to me or anything."
While Tiffany was able to hold one suspect for authorities, the other suspect reportedly got away with a Playstation and clothing belonging to her children.
Lane was booked on one count of burglary. He is being held in lieu of a $25,000 bond. The other suspect in the burglary remains to be identified.

thats f*cking great!!! hats off to this woman, even though what she did could have turned into a tragedy if this guy wasn't a complete wuss. i hope they find the other guy and get her stuff back...
That's right, kick ass girl!!
Pretty tough, but definitely not something the average person should do. I hope she either gets better security or moves - three burglaries in 5 months and she is still in the same locale?
She didn't have a scratch on her. WOW!
