sourcePolice are warning people about break-ins, they say the holidays are a busy time for thieves.
In Carmel, a woman foiled a break-in. Two bold thieves may have met their match. A woman came home only to run a couple of things into the house, left the keys in her truck and when she came back out two people were rifling through it.
"They had to have gotten in there within seconds," Diana Young said. "I opened the door back up and they were already in the vehicle."
"They were both in the truck and the doors were open," Young said.
She says 18-yearolds Cory Zigler and Casey Root walked into her garage and got into her truck either to strip it or steal it. Seeing her they took off and so did she watching where they were going and calling 911.
Their car was parked across the street. When she ran out she got the license plate number. The car was still running she went inside and even took the keys.
"I'm watching him from the window and he's realizing he doesn't have his keys," Young said. "I had his keys.
But wasn't she scared?
"No. I wanted them caught," Young said.
"She showed them that she had the keys when she was on the phone. We apprehended him on the scene. The other fled on foot and we apprehended him in the perimeter," Sgt. Brett Keith with the Carmel Police department said.
Carmel Police say Zigler and Root may be involved in two other car break-ins, one at Carmel High School.
Young's purse and keys were still in her truck. She's only relieved no one got hurt, "If they both would have had me inside that house I would have been in trouble."
One of the suspects is from Whitestown, the other from Sheridan. But the car they were in had an out of state tag and rental keys.
They are at the Hamilton County jail charged in one break-in but police are investigating a couple of others.
