It’s fair to say that most people have a very special relationship with their grandparents. They are friendly, caring and usually less strict when it comes to rules compared to parents.
Although they are very sweet and happy to fulfill any wishes of their grandchildren, it is still something that everyone learns from grandparents from a young age. Don’t try to mess with them. You know how it’s gonna end
This is also the case with Grandma Winifred Bell, 77, from Wirral, UK. Read the full story below…
One day Mrs Winifred Pell of Bromborough, Wirral went to an ATM to withdraw some money.
As she stood in front of an ATM and tried to enter the card’s PIN, she noticed someone approaching her from behind. Before she could react, two men immobilized her. Then another third appeared.
In front of the ATM, one of the thieves pressed the button to withdraw 200 pounds, and then the woman realized that she was robbed.
She acted quickly
The men were obviously thieves, and if Grandma Winifred didn’t act fast, they were going to empty her account.
But when one of the men tried to withdraw the money, the woman put a plan into action.
He managed to grab one of the thieves by the collar and hit him with the ATM head three times, before the men had to flee the scene, running like dogs with their tails between their legs.
Winifred called the police, and the attackers were arrested later that day.
One of the reasons why the police managed to identify the men is that one of them was injured in the head as a result of the defensive action of Grandma Winifred. They were identified as Piper Dumitru (18 years old), Florin Geblescu (18 years old), and Felix Stoica (19 years old). All three pleaded guilty in court and went to jail.
According to William Beardmore, the case prosecutor, the robbers drove to the town in search of “easy targets”.
“They didn’t care how that affected me,” Winifred told Britain’s Metro. “I can say with certainty that this event changed my life, I will never have the confidence I once had.”
Due to the fact that she grew up with her three brothers and did a lot of sports throughout her life, Mrs. Winifred showed a tenacity that the robbers did not expect.
Congratulations Grandma Winifred! We hope he taught these thieves a lesson they will never forget.
Of course, you should never try to steal, but three men attacking a 77-year-old grandmother is simply beyond shame.
