A Hero or just being naive?

See this guy he is the kookoo that I am telling this story about. Just so you know, he took these pictures with Zac's camera and left the camera behind for us.

Last Wednesday I had just put Alexander down for his nap and I was talking to my friend Kim Giguiere (She comes over to use my Internet connection). As we were talking I heard this really loud music, like a electric guitar. I looked at Kim and said, "where is that coming from". Kim told me that she had heard this last week when she was at the house but I wasn't home. I said, "Is that at Zac's place?" We listened a little more and I decided to go check it out. I kept thinking that maybe one of Zac's friends was visiting him, but I thought it was weird, as Zac would have told me.

Side note: Zac had someone steal his computer a few months back, and started locking his house. Then when I started taking care of Alexander he started leaving the door unlocked. I told Zac two days before this experience that he could lock the door because I had a key to his house if I needed to get in. Needless to say, he kept forgetting to lock his door.

As I opened his back door I saw this guy sitting in a chair looking 1/2 naked playing Zac's electric guitar and music playing loudly. We both looked at each other and I said, "hi, who are you?" He said, "I'm Brandon Whittmore, a friend of Zac's from 10 years ago...or something like that" I am sure I looked a little confused, as this guy looked like a surfer dude who had been living on the beach. I said, "oh, does Zac know that you are here?". He said "We keep in contact on facebook". At this point I was looking around and noticed that he had a pile stuff sitting on a stool, and the counter looked like someone had gone through stuff. I also knew that Zac no longer had a computer so I knew facebook was not an option. So I said to Brandon, "yes, but does he know that you are here right now"? Brandon made some comment about how he wanted to stay with Zac a few days and pay his SRP bill, and then said that he didn't have Zac's number to let him know that he was there. He asked if I had Zac's number and if I could give it to him. I told him that I would go get it, and ran to my place and got my phone. I called Zac on the way back to his house and asked him if he knew a Brandon Whittmore. Zac said "no" and then told me to get the guy out of his house and call the police, I was confused as Brandon was acting so casual that I didn't know what to think. By this time I was standing in front of Brandon and he was asking to talk to Zac on the phone, while Zac was on the phone yelling at me to call the police. I handed the phone over to Brandon where Zac basically gave Brandon a piece of his mind and told him he was calling the police.
So there I was standing in front of a guy who was getting angry and talking nonsense at this point, and I had Zac on the phone yelling at me to get the guy out of his house and call the police. Zac was on his way home and I thought "ok, what am I going to do?" Brandon was standing up at this point and I realized that he was only wearing a black stretch skirt that was riped up. I decided that I needed back up, so I called Kim and said, "Kim can you come over here and bring my keys". Kim is 6'2" so I knew we could take him if needs be. Since Brandon was upset and acting crazy at this point I decided to down play everything and get him out of Zac's house. So, I told Brandon, "hey I am sure this is just a misunderstanding, it's been a long time and maybe he doesn't remember you. Why don't you come back later when he gets home from work". It seemed to work because he went to get his black cloak which turned out to be a black blanket. It was also at this time that I noticed he also had a pile in the living room with stuff and he also had found Zac's sword that he keeps in his bedroom (under his bed - not something you just come across) sitting out in between the bible on the couch. Kim and I just looked at each other and thought...okay..get this guy is crazy. We also noticed weird notes he had written on the counter and it was getting weirder by the minute. Brandon left with nothing, and Kim and I were just sitting there looking at each other like "what just happened".
Zac came home called the police, as I didn't do it because I didn't know what to say to them. The police took the description of Brandon over the phone and within 5 minutes the police were on the radio saying they had picked him up down the street. The police asked me to get in his car and drive with him and identify the guy. So I did and sure enough it was the same guy. The police officer was very nice and asked me if I was sure that was him. I thought in my head, "yeah, I am sure that is the guy it's not to often that you meet a guy wearing a black skirt and black blanket".
Then we all headed back to Zac's place where all the reports were filled out. Zac had to go through his house with the police to make sure that nothing was taken. I was standing outside the house and the police officer came out and said "Where was he sitting and how did you get the guy out the house?". I told him that I thought Zac really did it when he got on the phone with the guy and told the guy off. I told him that I noticed he was getting agitated and wanted to just calm the situation by telling him that it was just a misunderstanding. That is when the Police officer said "You know he had a knife with him in the green chair. I don't know how you did it but you caught a guy stealing, he didn't take off with anything, and you got him leave the house". It was after this that I realized just how lucky I really was. Everything happened so fast and I was taking in so much and trying to process it. Zac was pretty upset with good reason and Alexander slept through the whole situation which was another blessing. It was about an hour later when I was standing in the kitchen and I just wanted to start crying over the whole experience. That night Zac and Alexander had a little sleep over at my place until everything could go back into place at their house.
Needless to say I went out and bought a new lock for Zac and Alexander door.
