If you thought [autotag]Anthony Smith[/autotag]’s recent home invader story was scary, wait until you see this video.
The former UFC title challenger made headlines earlier in the week with his wild and frighting account of an unhinged stranger breaking into his home in Omaha, Neb., in the early hours of the morning on April 5.
Smith said he was awoken around 4 a.m. by the sound of the stranger in his house. The UFC light heavyweight, who lives with his wife and three daughters, had to fight off the man for several minutes before he was able to subdue the individual later identified as Luke Haberman.
Video of Smith’s trespasser has now been released, as Haberman allegedly attempted to break into another home prior to Smith’s. Below is the video courtesy of 3KMTV.

Haberman was taken to the hospital following the beating from Smith, and has since been released. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office are also investigating Haberman for allegedly breaking into another home and trying to break into vehicles, according to 3KMTV. As of now, Haberman has been charged with first-degree criminal trespass and a misdemeanor.
Smith was scheduled to take on veteran Glover Teixeira in the main event of UFC on ESPN+ 31 in Lincoln, Neb., on April 25, prior to the indefinite postponement of UFC events due to coronavirus.
