Bow to your sensei

This is just too good to pass up. And, as usual, the details are golden.

Unbeknownst to the robber, Petrossi is an expert in martial arts. He assumed a “ready” stance, then grabbed a pair of scissors and box cutter from under the counter and told the man to “bring it on.” Petrossi said the man dropped the beer and fled.

If you get a chance watch the surveillance video paying close attention to the voice in the background.

Petrossi continued after the suspect, who looped back, got into the van, and attempted to drive away. His problems weren’t quite over, though. Petrossi grabbed a rock and threw it through the driver’s side window, shattering it.

No word yet on whether the store was robbed with no one, literally, minding it.

Early reports put the would-be robber in a state of melancholy or hopeless sadness as a result of the incident. 10 points for Petrossi. When do we get to bury the schmuck up to his head and smear jelly on him for the ants?

Caught this story on CNN last night. Apparently Sensei got a pic of the would-be robber’s license plate with his camera phone too.

Dude, you just scooped the most trusted name in news!
