Three Marines help woman being robbed
A Marine recruiting office is right across the street from a shopping mall. Just recently a lady was getting ready to get in her car after a peaceful day of shopping when she was approached by two would be robbers, that pointed a gun at her. When the two men approached her she screamed and her screams were heard by the United States Marines that were right across the street sitting in their office. The robbers fled the scene when they saw the Marines running after them. Later after a very short foot chase the Marines apprehended the crooks. The Marines said that when they caught up to the gunman that they weren't going to tackle them because they could not get their dress blues dirty. Instead they grabbed them and immediately put them in a arm bar until the police arrived. The Robbers were armed with a handgun but this seemed to not intimidate the very brave Marines. Reporters asked the Marines why would you chase after them knowing that they were armed. The Marines simply responded with "It is our job, we are used to it." Not only are these great men serving our country over seas they are also keeping good people safe in our own backyards. The worst thing that could of possibly happened to those no life robbers would have been running into a United States Marine. Bad luck for them but good luck for the lady that was being robbed, the Marines could have saved her life. Semper Fidelis

ReplyDeleteThey are doing a better job then some law enforcement officers
ReplyDeleteThat was so nice of the Marines to help the lady and also to stop the men and wait for the police when it wasn't even their job. They are so brave for going after armed men when they were not armed.
