Indiana Self-Defense: "I will crush your skull in:" 52-year-old woman fights off attacker with staple guns :: 02/08/2016
INDIANAPOLIS — A 52-year-old woman was able to fight off an attacker using a staple gun.
The woman named Carol told police a man was waiting in her garage when she returned home on Tuesday evening, February 2nd.
“I said ‘what’s going on? What do you need? What are you doing here?’ He says ‘I have a gun. I want your purse, and I mean it. I will shoot,’” said Carol.
Carol said she told the man he could have her purse — and that it was in her car. The man then charged at her, grabbing her and pinning her against a toolbox.
“So I grabbed a staple gun and smacked him on the side of the head. He went down to his knees,” said Carol.
She assumed the man would leave, but that wasn’t the case.
“I loaded up with two more (staple guns) in my other hand and he started charging at me again and I said ‘I will crush your skull in if you touch me again,’” said Carol.
The attacker had a bloody gash to the head, so he finally decided to leave.
“It’s either me fight like heck or you know, the bad outcome,” said Carol.
Carol said she hopes what happened to her will remind everyone to be aware of their surroundings.
Police are investigating this incident.
