Woman Thwarts Robbery By Running Over Suspect

Post by JJVP »

Police say a Beaver County woman may have thwarted a robbery, by running over a suspect with her car.
“She thought he was going to do something to them, so she yelled out of her car window, ‘Hey, they’re just kids, leave them alone,’” said Detective Sgt. Steven Roberts, of the Aliquippa Police Department. “He turned and pointed this at her, and she thought it was a real weapon and that she was about to be shot or that the kids were in danger, so she gunned her car and struck him.”

Does she get to paint a little thug on the side of her car like fighter pilots?

Maybe a hoodie.

They should have just removed his ear and handed it back to him.
