Business Owner Mows Down Suspected Burglar

A Little Elm man who had been robbed the night before, tries to make sure it doesn't happen again. 43 year old Roberto Ramirez owns a lot containing big rigs and tractors in Little Elm, which had been broken into Tuesday morning. So when Ramirez arrived at his lot and saw a Ford Explorer that looked suspicious, Wednesday morning he thought he was being robbed again.

Ramirez gave chase to the SUV and wound up in Frisco driving down a cul-de-sac.  Frisco police says the suspects tried to get out of their car and run. Ramirez couldn't stop soon enough and slammed into the driver, killing him.

The driver was taken to Baylor Medical Center in Dallas. It is not know if Ramirez will face any charges.
