Spurs Jesus catches burglar, holds him down until police arrive

Arguably the most unique San Antonio Spurs fan on the planet is responsible for getting a burglar off the streets following an incident at his home earlier this week.

A Southtown man who goes only by “Spurs Jesus” says he chased down a man who tried to burglarize his home on Monday night and held him down until police arrived. The suspect, Jose Roberto Medina, was allegedly trying to break into a second-story window while Spurs Jesus was home.

“I hear a noise behind my back and I turn around and my upstairs window there’s somebody there with his hands under the window trying to shimmy up the window,” Spurs Jesus told Bill Barajas of KSAT 12 in San Antonio.
