A store clerk in England performed a pretty bold move during an attempted armed robbery. In one clean motion the clerk grabs the gun right out of the would-be robber’s hand.
According to the description posted to Youtube along with the video:
This dramatic CCTV footage captures the moment a shop worker fearlessly disarms a man pointing a gun in his face as he attempts to rob the store.
Hunar Mohammed, 37, was working behind the counter at the shop in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire on Saturday night when a man came in and asked for cigarettes and alcohol.
As the father placed the items in a bag and worked out how much was owed, the armed man withdrew a gun and demanded the money from the till.
Displaying astonishing calm in the face of danger, Mr Mohammed snatched the weapon, which turned out to be a replica firearm, from the raider’s grasp in the blink of an eye and chased him off the premises.
Maybe it’s the fact that it’s in England and the fact that a replica gun was involved, but I can’t help but be reminded of this clip.
