- In a Walmart parking lot in Eagle Point, Oregon, 28-year-old cowboy Robert Borba stopped a would-be bike thief armed with little more than a lasso. Steve Hartman went "On The Road" to meet the the man who roped in a perpetrator.
"we got a guy who just stole a bike here at walmart. i got him roped and tied to a tree"
America's most successful citizen's arrest.
I love the "what" gets in response.
Watch Out for Cowboys !
@@beccarnr830 yea the what made it more funny.
In such a situation, some people would say, " I give up ", others would say, " Uncle " but they used to yell out, " Calf rope ! "
;What???
This is quite literally the most American thing I've ever seen in my life. A cowboy, bike thief, and Walmart.
All that’s missing is an obese woman on a scooter and someone with a gun. That’s basically all there is below the Mason-Dixon Line.
@Pyro Puffs Jesus 😂😂💀
@@PyroPuffs777 you ain't wrong
You forgot cheeseburgers
@@celerysoda this was in oregon ;)
The 991 dispatcher's "What?!?" was priceless.
I hope you know the correct number to dial in case of an emergency? 😅
She’s to dramatic for the job, guy clearly states what’s going on, woman, WHAAAT💀 back to the kitchen
It was a gruelling sight to behold, in the year of 2001, 91st day of the 9th month...
I was laughing so hard when the 911 operator said: WHAT?!!!
that horse must've been so confused, like, "sir, this isn't a cow..."
😂😂🤣🤣
He knew what to do though!
Ayumi Castillo • You're funny!!!😅😅😅
He did his job though.
Wym, the dogs were like whenever your ready give us the ok to maul this guy.
Everyone gangster until a cowboy bring out that lasso
cameron delvalle lol!
Mr Haney , not if that cowboy is the fastest in the... Whatever part of America he lives in.
Mr Haney unless the cowboy had a big iron on his hip
You have chosen fear .
@@someguy2594 love that comment
I love how he goes to the walmart with his horse and his dogs.
@phuc ewe it was like that in Arizona too, hitching rails outside stores in th outskirts of Phoenix, horses are still a legal mode of transportation.
Same still to this day in my town of less than 5,000.
My brother was a trucker and he said in Wyoming and Montana there's hitching posts at Walmart and other stores and there was horses there. I was in Missouri and saw an Amish guy take his carriage through the Mickey D's drive-thru.
@@monroe7403 were in you Seymour, Missouri? 🤣
A legend
“Uh I dunno I just figured it was the right thing to do, ya know?”
Truly the most honest and noble guy around
This is literally the BEST story I have ever heard. I'm dying...the last part where they show the photo of the thief tied up like a calf...there are no words!! SOOOO satisfying!!!
I know right? This just made my whole week worth it
cant begin to imagine how embarrassed the thief was that he was lassoed and tied up like that.
Get Joe Biden
Now that's how it is done. Bless you Robert. I am so proud of you!
Cowboy: "I got him roped and tied to a tree."
911 Operator: "What?"
My sentiments exactly! 😂
Fortunately they did not hang up on him.
LoLz!
I surprised she didn't waste even more time finding out what breed the horse was and what the rope was made of.
Operator: Did I hit my head on the desk or something?
The dispatcher's response was priceless! "Whaaat?" LMAO
He rode his horse to Walmart. He's a real cowboy.
I don't want attention I just want my rope back . Lol
Back in July while in Florida I saw a guy riding a steer down the side of the highway...

I see apologies, here is your rope too good person! 🪢(I just realized there is no rope emoji....wth... here is a bull also) 🐃
@@LeadGuitarist Polo, but his real name war Marko as he was Croatian
I see that sometimes
Now that is a real man, in every sense. He stepped out of the past to give lessons to the present.
🇬🇧
@A Teleskier • "a real man, in every sense." Yes, a true honorable, young man. His parents knew how to bring him up!
Stories like this one should abound to inspire many youngsters to lead a healthy life.
Out of the past? No! There are many cowboys in the world -- right now! They are not obsolete! They are hard working people, providing the steaks all the city folk demand.
@@vickypylant7271 Sorry but you missed my point. Yes, I know cowboys and ranch-hands still exist; we do have cattle farmers here in the UK as well believe it or not. I was referring to his manner and demeanour, his step-up attitude coupled with his quiet modesty afterwards. That's not common anymore.
Nowadays most people either don't step up at all or, if they do, they want selfies and praise so they can boast on social media.
So yes, he did step out of the past.
@@Nemisis2290 And this is an example of why I've deleted all of my social media accounts except this one, which is going shortly. I do spend most of my time outside; in fact, I only saw your comment because I fired this up to look for a DIY video to help me fix something.
The Internet is awash with people using comments sections to pick arguments or start fights. It's just too tiring to keep explaining to people when they take something I or someone else says as 100% literal and then argue with it; I don't have the patience or crayons to keep doing it.
The best course of action, I'm discovering, is delete all my accounts and just look things up anonymously as I need them. That means I cannot comment or converse with people, but Selfish Media is now just too much of a sewer, a swirling mess of narcissistic vitriol spawned by people with low educational levels and equally low intellect. (I'm not including you in there by the way - I'm just expressing my general view.)
@@ateleskier7066this long reply needs several thousand likes
What a great life he lives, his parents did so well.
Ditto!
He had work to do and no t.v., computer, or cell phone to shrink his being.
That dispatcher tho
"I got the thief roped and tied to a tree"
*_"WHAT?"_*
And you know she's heard it all. Such a great reaction!
literally 💀💀💀💀
I thought this was a joke comment not a quote
Yeah that was pretty F'ing great!!!!
Thief: *Steals bike
Actual Cowboy: "You've Yee'd your last Haw, partner"
Pfp fits the comment. Lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome comment 👏
🤣
thats from memerman
No he didn’t have a badge. He had a huge badge of courage. What a man.
1:17 just says it all; I love the dispatcher's reaction: "What?" It's not something that you hear everyday. I am just glad she took it seriously! 🤠
CB: “I got him roped and tied to a tree”
Operator: **confused tone** “What?!”
😂😂 I died laughing when she said WHAT?!
T G satan hates you
Immedietly came down to look for it.
It doesn't cover this in the book: How to react to a successful reporting of a citizens arrest.

Same here and I don't even care for horses!
I think they could have used him in Portland earlier this year!
I know this story is 4 years old.
I bet he will have a chance after tomorrow. Some people gonna riot win or loose.
A typical good-hearted hard working cowboy who always believes in helping others and doing the right thing. Good for you, my friend!! Thank you!
Stories like this just never get old. We need more cowboys.
This dudes out here playing real life Red Dead
J He's on his way getting the good (still sad though) ending.

Excellent point and reminder. Thank you!
Theres the red dead comment I knew I'd see

Lazo a thief in Walmart while riding a horse
_0.001% of players have achieved this_
He is probably the only person in the 20th century to do this ever
AevThe NotSoGreat
we are in the 21st but I get what u mean
I think the cops in big cities that ride horses should be made to take lassoing classes, a safer way to catch the bad guys!
Diane Schultz
and lazo the getaway car from half a mile... sure whatever 😂
Isn't it lasso?
I like this dude. He isn't trying to be all macho. He just saw a problem and fixed it like it wasn't any big deal. It's nice to see a person, especially a young man, with their ego in check. It probably comes from working outside with animals.
Bless this wholesome, righteous man and his family. Love it.
The Calvary was already there.
The cops showed up later.
That is how it should have been said
*cavalry
But nice comment otherwise
*Cavalry ...Calvary is a good few thousand miles around the globe from where this happened lol
cops = modern cowboys
police cars = mechanical horsey 😀
Thank you auto correct, cowboy saved the day
The fact that this man asked for his rope back, tipped his hat, and rode off makes him even more of a badass.
YEAH!!!!
@Phynix - Nope, just a regular cowboy. I know several that would react in the same way. Down to earth, salt of the earth men.
@@alycewich4472 what you know them personally LOL and also all cowboys in movies are supposed to be humble and badass.
It’s the John Wayne thing to do.
Hot 🔥
It's refreshing to see a fellow MAN doing what REAL men SHOULD! We don't hold cell phones in the air to film people doing bad things. We stop them from doing bad things!
Too true and too rare to see and too rare to see expressed. Don't just watch and video life, everyone -- live it for real, not for Tik Tok et al.
Say it LOUDER!!!
We need more cowboys in the world . Thankyou for being a real man .
Imagine you're high af coming out of Walmart with your snacks and you see an actual cowboy lasso a bike thief xD
Yeah, that would call for another joint ASAF
I would be like um this is hitting different then normally
@@jordan.8146 id probably look shake my head and just be like i think I’m trippin😂😂
I would take the greatest snapchat of it
In Norco CA we have trails along all the streets and there are hitching post at all the stores and yes we do ride our horses to the store.
Now that's a real man, God Bless him, we need a ton of guy's more like him. Great story and a beautiful family..
This has made my day. I wish we had more cowboys around.
that guy got clowned real hard in county jail... just imagine
Big time lol
he earned the name "Roper" 😂
by "clowned" you meant "raped", right?
Sher Tanumihardja no...

"It was the right thing to do" A phrase that is becoming harder to find anywhere.

I laughed so hard? Love this cowboy!
9-1-1 Operator: What? 😂
Kacy M. Are you asking if you laughed?
That better show up on ask reddit. “911 operators, what’s the strangest call you ever got?”
in the pause i could almost hear her mind try and fail to process what she just heard
@@blaze-ex8ht omg me too! 🤣
Kacy M. My grandma is hanging from the tree by her feet? Love eating ants and smushed bugs!
The sheer disbelief in the operator's voice was hilarious. You know something weird is going on if you can surprise a 911 operator.
You know she had to mute it a second in order to have a laugh.
Good point, that was funny!
I laughed so hard when I heard her say "...what??" Loved this story!
That What?! definetly got me lol
Right?
He is Truly an American Hero. Thank The Lord for this Fine Gentleman!

I just imagine a kid sitting in his mom's car while she's in the store trying to explain what happened to her after she came back.
LMAO
haha aw
“And then a cowboy on a horse came and he threw his rope and caught this bad guy wearing all black trying to escape on a bike he stole from a woman! And then he tied him to a tree while on his horse and the police showed up and gave the guy with the horse a laugh, and took the bad guy away”

Great job Robert. We need more citizens like you!
"You got a badge??"
"No I ain't got no badge!"

Missed opportunity to say: "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!"
Being a cowboy was his badge!
No but I got my Rope and 🐎 my Horse thats enough for now...
Andrew MacNaughton
Yes!!! 😂
Bet this guy was surprised to get ropes and tied by a cowboy!
I feel like the bigger story here is the cowboy nonchalantly taking his horse for a shopping trip to Walmart
The man is living the dream
Cowboy don't own a car 🐎🤦♂️
@@georgesilva1737 why pay for gas when you can just have a nice ride over? It’s not that uncommon out here. He probably does have a truck considering he RAISES CATTLE, but he’s only getting the one bag of dog food he can tie down.

Just imagine if the cowboy had a whip on him to.
The guy rode his horse to Walmart, with a rope and two cattle dogs.
This is going to show up in a Hallmark movie.

Yes, the operator was confused. She had never gotten a a call like that before.
