From the Las Vegas Sun: Police say an attempted burglary was foiled earlier this week when a homeowner turned a garden hose on a would-be attacker who was impersonating an officer.
A homeowner was watering his lawn in the area of Spencer Street and Silverado Ranch Boulevard about 10:45 p.m. Wednesday when a man dressed in all black, identified as 23-year-old Justice Nall, approached him, police said.
Nall yelled at the homeowner, saying "Get down, this is the police," according to the arrest report.
The homeowner refused and, believing he was about to be attacked, began spraying Nall with the hose, the report said.
After a few seconds, Nall fled the man's yard and ran elsewhere in the neighborhood. Metro Police officers spent two hours looking for him with help from helicopters and the K9 unit, according to the police report.
Nall eventually was found hiding in a bush wearing a black ski mask, black snorkeling goggles, black gloves, a black shirt and black jogging pants.

And in the end the robber probably will get a cold, sue the homeowner for damages and get a settlement.
