Retiree nabs vandalism suspect

Ex-deputy sheriff catches neighbor at Sun City Anthem with saw under coat

By KEITH ROGERS
REVIEW-JOURNAL

Sun City Anthem's tree killer suspect ran into the wrong guy over the weekend: a retired cop armed with a golf club.

Since November 2004 about 400 trees had been cut down in overnight sprees in the posh golfing and retirement community, so when 60-year-old William Edwards was driving home in the wee hours of Saturday morning and spotted several young trees freshly sawed off near Sun City Anthem at Scotts Valley drives , he reverted to his days as a deputy sheriff in Ventura County, Calif.
