Former two-division UFC champion Henry Cejudo sprang into action on Friday night to apprehend a fleeing suspect who allegedly ran a car into his neighbor’s home.
“All of a sudden I see this car – our neighborhood is kind of like a U – So I see this car coming with a huge right turn probably going 80 to 100 mph,” Cejudo said in an interview at the scene.
“He ended up hitting my neighbor’s yard. There were four passengers in there. They couldn’t get out. You can see inside this room, if someone was standing in there, they would be dead. All these kids are lucky to be alive,” Cejudo said.
“They all started to get out little by little. One of them kind of got away. They ended up getting them, but they all tried getting out of the car. Once they got out, I told them, ‘Hey, you guys ain’t going nowhere.’ Wayne tried to stop them, who is the owner of this house. You know, ‘You guys have got to be held accountable for what just happened.’ He ends up cold cocking my neighbor. That’s when I had to step in,” Cejudo explained.
Cejudo’s neighbor is in his 60s. He could be seen in the video bleeding from his scalp.

“Once he hit my neighbor I was like, alright man, all in,” Cejudo said. “He’s in his 60s and I had to go out there and picked him up, dropped him, slapped him around a little bit.”
