Pulling into her driveway Derde Rodriquez heard someone jump out of a back window. She saw the teen running across her lawn, his arms full of jewelry, cell phones, and a video game. Sixteen year old Jake Merfeld had to pick up the pace when Ms Rodriquez joined the chase with a long handled ice scraper she'd grabbed, increasing the reach of the long arm of the law considerably.The increasing speed caused the ill gotten gain to fly out of Merfeld's arms at various points along the merry chase while trying to find a way out of the yard.
Eventually Rodriquez reached far enough to club Jake atop the head with the ice scraper. At that point Jake chose to surrender. It was not to be a time to rest.
When Police arrived, Ms Rodriquez had him busy engaged in retrieving all of the items which had dropped from his arms during their impromtu foot race. Merfeld, who was treated for a cut on his head, faces a second-degree burglary charge, and is likely to have been glad to see the police arrive.
