There is a mouse in our garage, now what?

We found a live black mouse 🐁 in our garage this morning. I watched a YouTube video on how to make a humane mouse trap that will catch it in a 5 gal 🪣 bucket with a trap door lid for the mouse to fall in the bucket. My trap worked but when I went to put the actual lid on it the mouse jumped 3 feet in the air and got away. We’re getting an actual humane live mouse trap the we ordered from Amazon tomorrow.
Here is the dilemma. I want to take it out in the desert and let nature take its course. Probably get eaten by a snake 🐍 but will live a while. My brother wants to put gasoline ⛽️ on it and catch it on fire 🔥 then shoot it with the AR 15 to put it out of its misery. He said he sinned against us by coming in our house, and the mouse needs to pay for the sin. .
I’m hoping that I can catch it before he gets home and I’ll let it go. There is a video camera in our garage that finds it and zooms in on it. I’ll have to be fast because my brother caN see what’s going on by watching it on his cellphone.
What should I do

Guys, if their household doesn't even have an AR-15 then he was probably just kidding.

But if your garage isn't connected to your house (not all are) there might be less to worry about. Just go through with the proper method of ridding the mice or mouse.

@familyfunguy we are a gun family we have two A.R. $.15 in fact. The garage is connected to our house and we live in the desert so I wouldn’t really take the mouse and let it go a mile away just to make sure it doesn’t come back
