A thief in Des Moines, Iowa was caught in the act, thanks to a doorbell camera.
“Put that back right now,” the homeowner is heard shouting in the video. “I’m calling the police.”
The homeowner confronted the porch pirate, who was trying to sneak off with his air conditioning unit.
The robber had the AC unit loaded onto a trailer on the back of his bike.
But after the homeowner yelled at the man to “put that back,” the thief actually followed orders and returned the stolen air conditioner.
There is no word if the suspect was arrested, but police recommend investing in a doorbell camera.
