SCREW THE COPS! FAMILY TAKES MATTERS IN THIER OWN HANDS & KILL KIDNAPPER

This family took matters in their own hands! The dramatic moment an uncle carried his terrified and bloodied niece to safety after she was kidnapped and held hostage in an abandoned Louisiana house was caught on camera.Bethany Arceneaux was taken hostage on Wednesday evening by Scott Thomas, her ex-boyfriend and father of her child. A few hours after Marcus Arceneaux was pictured carrying his niece from a vacant house in Duson, a police swat team entered the building and Thomas was found shot dead. The 29-year-old mother had been stabbed and slashed but is expected to survive, her family said. She has been taken to hospital and is in a stable condition. She was rescued on Friday afternoon when a search party of family and friends confronted Thomas and managed to grab his victim. Police who were also searching nearby rushed to the scene and quickly surrounded the house in a tense stand off that lasted a couple of hours. Lafayette Police Corporal Paul Mouton said the swat team entered the house, ‘shots were fired and the suspect was deceased’ at about 3pm (CST) on Friday. Thomas died of injuries he sustained during the confrontation with Miss Arceneaux’s relatives. According to Captain Kip Judice, of Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s office, the victim’s family shot Thomas, seen below, as they tried to free her from his clutches. ‘Those family members entered the home and confronted Mr. Scott Thomas … who began to harm the victim. At that point, a confrontation ensued between the family member and Mr. Thomas.’ He added that when a swat team later entered the house where they found the body of the kidnapper. Arceneaux’s ordeal began at 5.20pm on Wednesday when Thomas grabbed her from outside a day care center. The 29-year-old was seen forcing his victim into a Buick LeSabre before driving off with her, leaving the victim’s child abandoned in her car. Relatives said gunfire was exchanged between the family and the alleged kidnapper but police could not confirm that. Mr. Arceneaux, the victim’s uncle, said: ‘We found my niece Bethany, she’s OK. I’d like to thank everybody who came out and helped us search.’ We can finally go to sleep at night,” the uncle said. “We felt we did what we had to do. It was a situation where her life was at hand. The guy was out to kill her and we weren’t going to wait for it to happen.” No charges were filed against the triggerman, who authorities believe was acting in defense of Bethany. “I hate that it happened like this, because I don’t feel like anyone should lose their life,” Marcus Arceneaux said. “My prayers go out to the Thomas family and I’m sorry for their loss, but we had to save our niece.”The couple have a violent history revealed in several police reports. She filed several reports alleging domestic abuse and also filed a restraining order against Thomas. So glad they got her out safe! What do you think?
