JEOPARDY FOR BURGLAR CHASED ALEX TREBEK

TREBEK

IT was double jeopardy for both a hotel burglar and game show host Alex Trebek, Wednesday when the game show host chased down a burglar, but ruptured his Achilles tendon in the process. 
The 71-year-old, who has presented 'Jeopardy' for over 25-years said he and his wife were sleeping when the thief broke into his San Francisco room and made off with cash, a bracelet and other valuables.   
Later as he hosted the National Geographic World Championship at Google headquarters in Mountain View he told the crowd: "At 2:30 yesterday morning, chasing a burglar down the hall. My Achilles tendon ruptured and I fell in an ignominious heap to the carpeting, bruising my other leg in the process."
San Francisco police Lt. Troy Dangerfield says 56-year-old old Lucinda Moyers was caught by a security guard at the hotel and arrested on suspicion of felony burglary and receiving stolen property.

Among the items stolen was one with sentimental value - a bracelet.
According to his mom, she gave her son the bracelet 20 years ago and he's been wearing it on the show every day since.
The cash and bracelet haven't been found but other items were recovered.
Dangerfield says officers found several items near the hotel ice machine.
Trebek is scheduled for surgery on Friday and is expected to be in a cast for six weeks.

ARMED THUGS CHASED OUT BY A CHIHUAHUA

HE'S the little dog with the big heart, undaunted even by an armed robber shoving a shotgun in his face. 

LA County sheriff's deputies released a video of the barking Chihuahua angrily chasing off robbers at an Altadena smoke shop.

Two hooded bandits, one armed with a rifle can be seen running into the Ace Smoke Shop on July 7 and demanding money.As the store owner begins putting money in a backpack carried by one of the men, the owner's Chihuahua begins barking incessantly and jumping at the men, chasing them out of the store and down the street.
Neither the store owner, nor the dog was injured and it's unclear how much they got away with and cops are still searching for the thieves.
