Go Granny!

Posted by Susan

ARTICLE ON THE FOX23 NEWS WEBSITE CAN BE FOUND HERE

Here's one woman you don't want to mess with.

Even though the 95 year old woman is confined to a wheelchair, she protected herself and her home by stabbing a would-be intruder with a screwdriver every time he put his hand through her window and tried to unlock her door.

The guy didn't take a hint and continued attempting to unlock the door. Not too bright in my opinion because the woman kept stabbing him. The article says the "attack" went on for about an hour and a half until the intruder passed out and the woman called police.

The officer was quoted as saying, “What do you tell your friends in county jail, where did you get those wounds? I don't know that he's going to tell them he got them from a 95-year-old lady confined to a wheel chair."

There's a video from KTUL Channel 8 HERE. There's a commercial at the beginning, but it's worth the wait!

Some of the comments on other sites are a hoot!


  • And now he is awl screwed up...

  • Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill.

  • As experienced burglars go, you wouldn’t say this guy was a Craftsman...

  • Foghorn Leghorn: I say I say the boy's about as sharp as a bowling ball.

And my personal favorite:

That’s the woman I want answering the phone at 3 AM!!!

This woman is my hero - I want to be just like her when I am 95. Hell, I want to be just like her now!
