SACRAMENTO, Jan. 5 (UPI) -- A pair of fleeing burglary suspects found themselves at the bottom a law enforcement football team's dog pile, authorities in California say.
Sacramento County sheriff's Sgt. Tim Curran said the two home burglary suspects, identified as James Hill Jr., 19, and an unnamed 17-year-old, were fleeing deputies Monday and arrived at the Foothill High School campus to find a team of sheriff's deputies practicing for an upcoming football game against local firefighters, The Sacramento (Calif.) Bee reported Tuesday.
Curran said the pair found themselves tackled by the players and arrested on charges of attempted burglary and conspiracy.
A third suspect, Jamario Hill, 20, was arrested on the same charges before the fleeing suspects made it to the school.
