A UK pensioner took on a gang of six masked and helmeted robbers attempting to smash their way into a jewellers to steal valuable items. The thieves drove up on scooters and used hammers to try and break the glass windows of the shop in a bid to take watches and jewellery. Passers-by watched in alarm as the robbers battered at the glass, however the female pensioner showed no fear as she sprinted towards the thieves and began hitting them with her handbag. At this, the thieves realised their plot had been foiled and attempted to ride away but one of the scooters fell to the ground and although the driver managed to run off, the passenger was apprehended. Police later arrested other members of the gang and thanked the woman for her courage.
