Real cowboy Robert Borba was in the parking lot at an Eagle Point, Oregon Wal-Mart when he heard a woman yelling that someone was riding off on her bicycle. So Borba grabbed his trusty steed Old Grey from his trailer and took off after the suspected thief.

"I just roped him and the rope went down around his feet and I just rode off like I would if I'd roped a cow or something by myself..." Borba told KOBI-TV news. "Stealing ain't right so I figured get him stopped you know?"

Police arrested the suspect, Victorino Sanchez, and charged him with theft.qiGMqg4g8oI
