Following reports of a home invasion, police in Austin, Tex., gave chase to a suspect who attempted to flee -- driving a golf cart.
According to television reports, the Austin Police Department responded to a call from a homeowner who said an intruder had broken in and was holding one of them at knifepoint, while forcing him to tie up others in the house. Police arrived to see a suspect running from the back of the house to the nearby Morris Williams Golf Course.
"He commandeered a golf cart and took off in the golf cart," Jeff Slater of the Austin Police Department told KVUE television news. "Officers did the same and gave chase on a golf cart."
Police caught up with the suspect as he attempted to outrun their cart on foot. The homeowner who called the police was also arrested after officers determined that the car parked in his garage was reported stolen.
