Band of muggers

It is always sad when someone gets killed. Still, I applaud this gentleman for fighting back.
If someone decide to be a criminal, that person should also be prepared to pay the consequences. My sympathy will never be with the criminals ...

Story:
San Jose, Costa Rica: A tour group of U.S. senior citizens fought off a band of muggers in eastern Costa Rica, sending two of the assailants fleeing and killing a third, police said Thursday.

One of the tourists — a retired U.S. serviceman whom officials estimated was in his 70s — allegedly put one assailant in a headlock and broke his clavicle after the 20-year-old and two other men armed with a knife and gun held up their tour bus Wednesday, said the police chief of Limon, 130 kilometers east of San Jose.
