Read several versions of the story and one said the perp returned fire and emptied his 9mm and hit the poor woman several times. I'm trying to imagine someone able to do that after taking two lethal .357 rounds....

I read the same thing, only the article I read said that she laid there for 10 hours until her handicapped son finally brought her a phone.

Still she did a dam good job under the circumstances! One of our neighbors up here at the lake is about 82 lives alone and she has a .38 loaded with wadcutters. At close range it will do the job if called upon! |

My departed 90 year old grandmother (still doing fashion modeling for oldsters) was mugged in the streets of Pittsburgh by two thugs and I remember her saying if she could have gotten to the Black Jack she carried in her purse daily she'd have "laid them out".
