Grandmother draws blood from knife-wielding attacker

#1

Post by ELB »

A 75-year-old grandmother used her car keys to draw blood from a knife-wielding attacker as he robbed her of her $1,000 in rent outside a gas station.

...

"You were armed with a car key," News 8 asked, "and he had a knife?"

"Yeah, but I still thought I could get him," Moody said



Tough gal.

But then ...


Bleeding, the 75-year-old woman walked around the corner to find the station manager.

"I asked him, 'Can you call 911? I've been hurt.' Then I said, 'Can I come in the store?' He then took both hands and did like that, to go away," she said, motioning with her arms.

After News 8 contacted him, the owner apologized, reprimanded the manager and told his other employees that customers must be allowed to use the phone in the future.

Another reason to have a CHL and being armed, no?
