I sure would like to know the details of how this all went down. Seems pretty dangerous to interfere with a robbery in progress, but sounds like an excellent outcome.

It's dangerous crawling into your car every day. Let your conscience be your guide.

This is why we need more people carrying guns... where was the police to protect the victim? Not to slam LEO's, but they can't be everywhere... and criminals go after what they think are vulnerable victims.

Kudos to the Good Samaritan for stopping this... I hope all is cleared and no charges are pressed.
