Monday morning feel good story
Chief Tango sends us a link to our feel good story to kick off the week, this time it’s from Florida where veteran Marvin Lail took on an armed thief at the local 7-Eleven;
Marvin Lail, an Army veteran trained in hand-to-hand combat, wasn’t going down without a fight.
“I went around to the back of the car, and he kept trying to get the wallet, and showed me the big gun,” Lail said.
But even the sight of a gun wasn’t enough to scare the concealed-carry permit holder, who desperately tried to defend himself.
“He showed it to me and said, ‘I got a gun!’ I said, ‘You’re going to have to kill me to get my money!’” Lail explained.
The great-grandfather managed to keep his wallet during the scuffle. Eventually, the video shows a 7-Eleven employee coming outside and the suspect casually walks away.
“I wasn’t going to give in. He said, ‘Give it up old man! Give it up old man!’ No, the adrenaline just started flowing,” Lail said.
