Three brothers attempting to break into a home near a high school football field were unpleasantly surprised to find an entire football team full of cops nearby.
The suspects tried to run but were quickly chased down and apprehended by the officers.
The oldest of the brothers actually tried to run through the field where the officers were practices but was quickly stopped.

Sort of lends a whole new meaning to "touch down" now doesn't it. Score: Cops 2 perps 0. Second down and perps forfeit. I never did like football much but this just may change my attitude.
