A teen girl was allegedly followed into her home from her school bus stop by a man. He had no idea, though, that her Army veteran father was at home and ready to take care of business.<\/p>\n
Mike Oliver, an Army veteran and a father of 15, was none too pleased when he found a man in his Livonia, Michigan, home on a Monday afternoon. The guy had allegedly followed his teenage daughter from her school bus stop and into their house, according to Fox 2 Detroit. \u201cThe door\u2019s staying open. Then, I heard her talking,\u201d Oliver recalled. \u201cI get up, I go to the door, and there\u2019s a guy in my door.\u201d<\/p>\n
After getting off the bus, Oliver\u2019s daughter had noticed something wasn\u2019t right. She quickly realized someone was watching her, and they had continued to follow her as she walked home. When she reached her front door, she was approached by a man. According to police, he allegedly followed her onto the porch, asking if her parents were home as he followed her into the house, WXYZ reported.<\/p>\n
Luckily, Mike Oliver had been sitting in the living room, waiting for his 15-year-old, 10th-grade daughter to get home from Franklin High School when he discovered the man, who appeared to be about 30 according to the dad, had followed his daughter home. Upon this realization, Oliver asked the man in no uncertain terms what he was doing on his property.<\/p>\n
Rather than answer, the suspect decided to try to bolt from the residence. However, Oliver wasn\u2019t going to let him get away so easily. The Army veteran promptly went after the man, later identified by police as 27-year-old David Roberts of Livonia. Roberts didn\u2019t get very far.<\/p>\n
In fact, Oliver stopped him before he even made it off his lawn as he wrestled with him in the front yard. \u201cGrabbed him by his hair,\u201d Oliver said, recalling the moment he stopped the man dead in his tracks. \u201cHe was like an alligator just twisting, and he got away. He ran around the corner.\u201d<\/p>\n
