Default 77 year old Welshman fights off Mugger

Brilliant bit of cctv on BBC news channel - a mugger attempts to rob a man at a cash point but the guy (who turns out to be 77 years old) takes up a fighting stance and sees the scrote off!!

Well done that man!

Sorry I’m no longer able to post links - kept trying - now don’t bother.

But if you google it - it’s on BBC news - you can find it.

Well worth a look to see a brave man in action.

I have literally just finished watching this. Brilliant! Particularly when raised his fists and squared off to the scumbag. Well done that man. Although today's society, I do wonder if the scrote will now file a claim against the man for causing distress and harm to his mental well being. Scary thing is, he would probably win!!!

In that first bit of the altercation I would have been sorely tempted to give him a swift knee in the bolox!

Great work by the old fella seeing the would-be mugger off on his heels.

He should have chosen a better time than the early hours to use the cash point .

Risk assessment is a very useful tool.
