That kind of thing tends to upset your whole day, what with the police interviews and all.

I always keep a few microwave meals in the freezer for when my day is wrecked and I just want to eat something.

Seriously, aside from the fact that the incident was resolved pretty well, can you imagine those kids seeing their grandma turn into a ninja fighter? I'll bet they never mess with her.

If this happened to me, I would be heading to the liquor cabinet. :cheers2:

In the interview, she was asked about the reaction of her grandkids who watched the whole thing from her car. They said [something like]: "Wow, way to go grandma! I didn't know you could do that."

I have never done anything that person-to-person violent, but I think I would be headed to the pharmacy for Xanax or something.

It's no surprise LEOs have problems dealing with this kind of thing and worse every day.
