A suspected burglar was arrested after his alleged victim caught him in the act and held him there with a shotgun on Wednesday night, according to Napa Police.

Officers arrived at the scene of an in-progress burglary at a home on the 2100 block of Penny Lane to find that the suspect was already being detained by the resident.

The resident pulled out their 12-gauge shotgun when the suspect, identified as Daniel Raymond Hendricks, 26, of Napa, entered the home, police said.

Hendricks, who was wearing a bandana and had a folding knife, told the resident that he was being chased, police said. When police arrived, Hendricks admitted that he was paranoid and high on methamphetamine, police said.

Hendricks was arrested and booked at the Napa County jail on suspicion of burglary.
