A friendly English Springer Spaniel named Bonnie, who also happens to be deaf, is being praised by her owner for helping him catch a suspected intruder in their Salem home. Dan Strasser said he heard Bonnie running around the living room at about 6 a.m. Saturday, so he got out of bed to see why she was so excited. "She smelled him because she does have a very good sense of smell," said Strasser. "She jumped up and got all excited thinking someone was there to play." He said Bonnie didn't bark or bite like a guard dog, but the commotion she made was enough to alert him. When he walked into the living room, Strasser said he caught the intruder trying to steal his laptop. Strasser said the man took off, but instead of running out the back door where he came in, he accidentally ran into the garage, where he was cornered. "As you can imagine there's a lot going on in his mind, like ‘How do I get out of this place?' It's dark and he doesn't know it." Strasser said he grabbed his gun and held the intruder in the garage while his girlfriend called 911. "There was a lot of, ‘I'm sorry,'" said Strasser. "He starts talking about how he wants to go home and see his kid and asks if I would please let him go. All the stuff you'd say if you're caught and you don't want to go to jail." Police showed up and arrested the intruder, who they later identified as Thomas Lowell, 25. He was arraigned in court Monday on charges of burglary and possession of methamphetamine. He is due back in court Oct. 2. Strasser said Lowell got in through the back door, which he kept open at night so Bonnie could get into the backyard. He plans to keep it closed and locked from now on. |
据美国媒体近日报道，一只友好的英国史宾格犬邦妮虽然耳聋，却帮助主人擒获了一个入室盗窃犯，主人对她很是赞赏。 塞勒姆居民唐·斯特拉瑟斯（Dan Strasser）说，他在清晨六点时听到邦妮在起居室里跑来跑去，就起床看看她为什么这么兴奋。 “她闻到了窃贼的气味，因为她的嗅觉非常灵敏，”斯特拉瑟斯说。“她跳起来，高兴得不得了，以为有人可以陪她玩了。” 他说，邦妮没有像看门狗那样吠叫或者咬人，但她制造的声音已经足够警告他了。 斯特拉瑟斯说，当他走进起居室时，看到窃贼正在偷他的笔记本电脑。据他描述，这位不速之客一看见他扭头就跑，但他没有从进来时的后门跑出去，而是无意中跑进了车库，那里只有死路一条。 “你可以想象，他脑子里打了很多主意，像‘我怎么从这里出去？’之类的念头，车库里很黑，他并不知道这个。” 斯特拉瑟斯说，他抓起枪对准车库里的窃贼，这时他的女朋友打了911。 据美国媒体近日报道，一只名叫邦妮的英国史宾格犬虽然耳聋，却帮助主人擒获了一个入室盗窃犯，主人对她很是赞赏。 丹•斯特拉瑟住在俄勒冈州塞勒姆。他听到邦妮清晨六点在房里跑来跑去，就警觉地起床一探究竟。 “她闻到了窃贼的气味，因为她的嗅觉非常灵敏，”斯特拉瑟说。“她跳起来，高兴得不得了，以为有人可以陪她玩了。”他说，邦妮没有像看门狗那样吠叫或者咬人，但她弄出的声响已经足够警告主人。 斯特拉瑟走进起居室时，看到窃贼正在偷他的笔记本电脑。据他描述，这位不速之客一看见他扭头就跑，逃进他家的车库，被困在那里。斯特拉瑟后来持枪制住窃贼，而他的女朋友拨打了911。 “这贼嘴里不停告饶，一个劲说‘对不起，’”斯特拉瑟描述，“他开始诉说他多想回家看看他的孩子，求我放了他。 总之，谁要是被捉住了，还怕进监狱都会说这一套。” 警察赶到后逮捕了窃贼，并确认此人名叫托马斯• 洛厄尔（Thomas Lowell），现年25岁。 斯特拉瑟说，为了让邦妮晚上能进后院玩，他夜里常开着后门；而洛厄尔就是从后门潜入他家房子的。斯特拉瑟今后得锁好门了。 （译者 sxdns717 编辑 王琦琛） |
