Iron man

Sweet - hats off to this senior citizen!
Strange how these "tough guys" are not so tough after all when someone takes their "toys" away and doesn't want to play their game.

Story:
74-year-old Bruce Ferraro had no idea someone was following him as he walked out of a department store at the South Shore Mall in New York on Saturday and got into his car, according to News.yahoo.com.

The mugger demanded Ferraro hand over his wallet, calling the Bay Shore resident an "old man" and threatening to hit him with the tire iron, police said.

Instead, Ferraro grabbed the bar and the two fought, until the septuagenarian managed to snatch away the tire iron, police said.

Without the weapon, the 32-year-old suspect ran to his car and attempted to drive away, police said. But the vehicle stalled, and the man got out of the car and fled on foot. Ferraro later helped police identify the suspect.
