Or was that later?

May not have known it at first, but I believe the tats probably were a pretty good tip off. I'm sure the local news around the area, was probably more saturated with info on these guys than it was here.

They probably weren't able to steal any shirts, and wearing prison shirts was more of a giveaway. Of Course they don't realize that most people on the outside, don't have the massive amounts of prison art on their bodies.

On Thursday, Dubose and Rowe crashed a stolen vehicle after a high-speed chase with police. They escaped on foot and were trying to steal another car from a home in central Tennessee when the homeowner discovered them.

The homeowner called his neighbor, and he and his neighbor grabbed guns and chased the fugitives down. Dubose and Rowe had no way to fight back because they lost their guns when crashing during the police chase. They surrendered to the homeowners, and police took them into custody.
I've seen other stories and photos that show these guys were captured in a semi rural area. It doesn't surprise me at all that a couple of country boys grabbed their guns chased the fugitives down. It does surprise me a bit that the fugitives surrendered to the country boys. It's a good thing that these BG's didn't get their hands on any more weapons.

I imagine after a few days on the run, where their picture was in every paper, and TV screen, they were tired, and hungry. They had no money, so they were at the mercy of obtaining what they needed by theft. They had no way to contact anyone who may have assisted them (if such people were even available) They are not the smartest guys either, they would have had a much better chance if they had split up. Staying together, put more eyes on them, and those tats were a dead give away. Additionally, its much harder to "get the jump" on someone who comes to the party prepared, with guns drawn.

Wonder if this will be the top story on any of the big three networks tonight or will I have to hear what seems like night 100 of "Russian Collusion" as the lead story.

Good for the homeowner. Yeah, it will be buried, since it involved a good guy with a gun.
