A Florida intruder learned the hard way that breaking and entering can have painful consequences, especially if one of the people is an MMA fighter.
As CBS 12 reported, Henny Rojas was sleeping at his relative’s home in Wilton Manors on Saturday morning when his teenage nephew woke him up in a panic to inform him an intruder was in the living room.
Upon hearing this, the MMA fighter sprang into action. Using his skills, he beat the tar out of the intruder and subdued him until the police arrived.
The intruder, who identified as 31-year-old Austin Carasani, was then arrested and taken into custody.
Rojas told CBS 12 in an interview that he was fully prepared for the engagement and suffered no injuries.
I’m prepared. It’s not my first time; I don’t feel pain. Nothing,” Rojas told CBS 12. “I don’t have guns; I wasn’t looking for a knife — just God and my hands, that’s it.”
“Protect your family,” he added. “There are a lot of crazy people [who] don’t believe in God, who [are] only looking for damage.”

Caresani allegedly claimed he was trying to find his friend “Paul’s” house when he ‘accidentally’ entered the Rojas home.
He had been drinking at a nearby club.
Caresani was charged with home invasion and is still in custody at the Broward County Jail as of Tuesday. His bond has been set at $20,000.
Rojas and his family revealed they had never seen Carasani before he broke into their house.
