   A woman was taken red-handed by a Texas pastor, who pointed a   
   gun at her as she allegedly tried to steal from him last Friday.   
      
   KTRK, citing police, reported Pastor Benny Holmes directed the   
   firearm at Laurie Ferguson when he stopped her from snatching   
   packages off his Baytown porch.   
      
   Holmes' wife Pat told the affiliate station 'She said "I'm   
   looking for my dog." He said "You found your dog. Bow wow."'   
      
   Ferguson allegedly swiped packages off the porch in other   
   instances, KTRK reported.   
      
   'He was at his wit's end,' Pat Holmes told the affiliate   
   station. 'He was determined in his mind that he would sit here,   
   however long it took, to see if he could find her.'   
      
   Other missing belongings from the community were found at   
   Ferguson's house, police told the affiliate station.   
      
   'I learned [police] had retrieved quite a few packages from her   
   house,' she also said.   
      
   Speaking about a hat that spells 'Forgiven,' Pat Holmes told the   
   affiliate station 'We already have it gift-wrapped.'   
      
   Benny Holmes lured Ferguson to the porch by displaying fake   
   packages, Pat Holmes revealed to to ABC News.   
      
   The news site reported that on the Holmes' porch in last week's   
   incident, Benny 'recognized the suspect as a woman he had   
   stopped two years earlier when she walked by the side of his   
   house claiming she was looking for a missing dog.'   
      
   Pat Holmes told ABC News 'I guess she uses that every time she   
   gets caught.'   
      
   Ferguson faces a theft charge, the news site reported.
