An apparently drunk burglar chatted with his victim long enough for officers to arrive and arrest him, US authorities said today.
John Michael Baker, 25, of Winnsboro, Texas, was arrested on Friday, the Wood County Sheriff's Office said.
Sheriff's Chief Deputy Debbie Foster said a woman saw a man breaking into her home, and she called her husband.
The husband hurried home and saw Baker making his getaway. He called police before heading over to talk to the suspect, whom he knew.
The men chatted by the side of the road until police arrived.
Ms Foster said Baker was "pretty intoxicated".
Baker was charged with burglary.
