24 year old Christopher Labauve was arrested for brekaing into the home of an elerly couple.

Police say a highly intoxicated Labauve entered the home of Robert and Beverly Johnson Sunday night through a back door and found the couple in the living room.

The 73 year old Robert confronted the man and chased him to a back bedroom and tackled him and held him down until law enforcement arrived.

Labauve had a 18 inch knife in his waist band, but he did not use it against the Johnsons.

Labauve was arrested and charged with burglary and criminal trespassing, but he was released because there was not enough jail space.
