Don't even think about taking the tequila

MADISON, Wis. (AP) - January 5, 2011

Police in Madison, Wisconsin, say a suspect gave back a bottle of tequila after a homeowner hit him in the noggin.

Authorities say a woman woke up her husband after she heard someone in their house.

Police spokesman Joel DeSpain tells The Capital Times the husband followed the man out of the home and clobbered him with a knife sharpener.

Authorities say the suspect gave back the booze, but got away with a cell phone.
