A Pulaski County man is accused of breaking into two houses in a matter of days and both homeowners called 9-1-1 while holding the suspect at gunpoint.
One of those homeowners spoke with LEX 18 about the bizarre break in.
Sunday morning, Peter Fitzgerald says he found someone wearing his clothes and putting his tools into his pick-up truck.
Shane Longlott was attempting to rob Fitzgerald, according to police.

Fitzgerald says that the suspect broke into the house through a window and ransacked every room. He grabbed anything and everything of value.
Fitzgerald moved to Pulaski County from Downtown Miami and he says it isn’t the first time someone has broken into his home.
“Once I saw the syringes laying about the house and the driveway, I knew this could get out of hand pretty quickly, and I knew he was armed because I took some knives off him at first,” said Fitzgerald. “That goes to show it takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun.”
Longlott’s parents say he is lucky to be alive.
