HOUSTON DAD HOLDS INTRUDER AT GUNPOINT AFTER CATCHING HIM LOOKING INTO DAUGHTER'S WINDOW
HOUSTON -- A Texas homeowner says he woke up in the middle of the night to find a stranger in his backyard, but believes police took way too long to get there.
Ike Umar, who lives in the Galleria area, said he called 911 for help several times, but he claims it took a while for officers to show up.
As he was waiting for help, Umar said he was terrified that something would happen to his wife or their 6-month-old daughter.
Now, he's more upset with the Houston Police Department than the intruder.
"My wife woke me up, and she said, 'Hey, I think somebody's in the backyard.' So, I moved the curtain, and I see a face of a guy who's trying to look inside. My daughter's bed is right there," said Umar.
His home surveillance system caught a shirtless, tattooed intruder sneaking into his back gate around 3 a.m. on Tuesday.
"I said, 'Hey, who are you? What are you doing?' That's when I did my gun thing, like I loaded my gun. He heard that and just went up ... his hands."
Umar said the man didn't have a weapon and told him he was trying to find a place to hide from gang members who wanted to hurt him.
"When he said gang, six men and guns, I'm not thinking about my protection. I'm like, how can I keep these guys away long enough from my house so my daughter and my wife don't get hurt?" said Umar.
