Intruder: Thomas McGowan, 25, broke into the home of Jimmy Morgan Jr. to hide from police

A homeowner sporting a Game of Thrones T-Shirt and brandished with a medieval sword says that he could have taken the life of an intruder who entered his home but that he is a Christian and doesn't believe in killing.

Thomas McGowan, 25, broke into the Wichita Falls, Texas home of Jimmy Morgan Jr. at midnight on Tuesday but retreated with terror leaving splatters of blood on the wall after Morgan Jr. whipped out a medieval sword and told him to get lost.

McGowan broke into Morgan Jr.'s home to hide from police after crashing his car during a police chase.

Police drove after McGowan for driving a car that was reported stolen.

As it turns out, the car belonged to McGowan who reported the theft but later forgot to tell police he found his car.

Morgan, who practices a medieval fighting method called SCA armored combat, told reporters from KDFX about how he stopped an intruder without use of a firearm despite many of his Texas neighbors who own a gun.

Morgan Jr. is also a fan of the HBO television drama Game of Throne which features sword fighting and bloody battles.

Morgan says he heard McGowan enter from the window. Upon seeing him he grabbed his trusty spear.

'He started retreating and I started advancing and I was stalking him here, you never cross your legs, and I cornered him right here,' says Morgan Jr..

Morgan explains how when McGowan tried to exit through the door he panicked when he realized it was locked.

'The door was locked and shut. He was panicked at this point. He said, 'I can't get out, I can't get out'.

'As he was running, he smeared blood from here to high heaven and he splattered here and he splattered there and splattered all over there. It was like a deer,' Morgan Jr. added.

While Morgan Jr. doesn't think fighting back to an intruder is always the safest thing to do, he's trained in a medieval fighting practice that came in handy the other night.

'It's called the SCA. It's a medieval fighting and we do use spears and swords and things of that nature. I don't have a firearm so I have a short spear, very quick, very agile and very deadly,' Morgan Jr. says.

Morgan Jr. had the intruder cornered the other night and easily could have killed him but he says he is a religious and moral man who doesn't believe in taking someone's life.

'I am a Christian man and I don't want to take life, however I want to make sure that he understands that his life was mine to take. I let him have it.'

McGowan crashed his vehicle and was able to outrun police. That's when he broke into Morgan's trailer.

McGowan is charged with evading arrest with a vehicle, criminal trespass of a habitation, and driving while intoxicated.

Myhighplains.com reports that McGown was taken to the hospital for his injuries, treated, and then booked in jail on $5,000 bond.

This may be McGowan's first encounter with a member of the Night's Watch but it is not his first run-in with police.

In April 2013, a grand jury declined to indict McGowan after he was charged with arson for an October 2012 fire at a Wichita Falls apartment complex.

The fire department said McGowan intentionally lit the house on fire to cover up a burglary.
