Wannabe Robber Runs into Fist; Forced to Clean Up Own Blood

This is going to go down as a classic. Not only did this would be robber get knocked out, he was forced to clean up his own blood. Definitely a holiday feel-good story; it just pulls at the heart strings.

HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. -- A clerk at a business in Western North Carolina punched a would-be robber and knocked him out cold just minutes after the man barged in with a gun and demanded money.


It happened about 15 minutes before closing time Friday night at We Buy Gold store in Hendersonville.


“When he came through the door he told me had a gun and he even flashed it," said Derek Mothershead. “I stood up and threw my hands up and said, 'Take the money.'”


Mothershead said the man came behind the counter with a bag.

“I got the money and he had the bag out and instead of putting it in the bag I stuck it out and said, 'Just take it.' So, when he reached out, I took a step in, I cocked back and preloaded and I hit him hard,” Mothershead told News 4's Mike McCormick.

For the sake of this perp, I hope his future cellmates haven’t seen this video.
