Man confronts burglars fleeing his neighbour’s home in Las Vegas

Las Vegas resident Brett McCann confronted four burglars fleeing his neighbour’s home. He armed himself with a gun and recorded the incident with a video camera.

Mr McCann was alerted by his neighbour who phoned from work to tell him that someone was robbing his house.

The four men escaped within 30 seconds – one of whom dramatically dives into the boot of the white SUV getaway vehicle.

Mr McCann was able to capture a clear image of the driver after shouting “what are you guys doing?”

The driver replied “It’s my homeboy’s house.”

Mr McCann was in the U.S. Air Force for 22 years and has reportedly said he never hesitated to act and hopes the footage will help police find the men.
