Life Imitates Disney Art

So this story popped up in my newsfeed this morning: "Fayetteville Home Invade Receives A Little Frying Pan Justice":

(Full Story on the local ABC news affiliate.)

Cliffnotes version: guy breaks in (apparently shot?); homeowner attacks him with frying pan.

Sound familiar?

I mean, you just have to laugh. 

Not about the guy getting hit with a frying pan. Although I think he's okay, that's still not a humorous incident. (Especially since I think he assaulted a woman before the B&E.) 

But...they did use a frying pan to take care of an intruder. Survival skills by Disney? I wonder if they're even aware of the Disney/Tangled connection...
