State Senator Tim Burchett, from Knoxville, held some thieves at gunpoint while on hold with 911. That’s what I love about Knoxville, it’s really like Mayberry sometimes. The best line from this article?
While holding them at gunpoint, Burchett gave cookies to the would-be thieves because they were hungry.
There’s more actual info in this article here, which mentions another Knoxville politician–Knox County Commissioner “Lumpy” Lambert–who protected himself with a handgun during the same week! Gotta love it, kids.

turns out the attempted carjacking that lumpy prevented also led to the discovery that the same guy had committed murder not but a few hours earlier…word up 2nd amendment and TCA!
