Surveillance video - Fights off robber
This convenience store employee sure took matters into her own hands when a robber stuck a gun in her face.  The surveillance video is a must see.
The woman, Hafize Sahin, 27, stalled the man and, thinking he might come behind the counter, pulled out an ax the employees keep around for trimming tree limbs outside. He pointed the gun across the counter, and Ms. Sahin, who was wearing a long dress and a headscarf, began swinging at him. The man fled the store empty-handed, and Ms. Sahin can be seen in pursuit to the parking lot in the store’s surveillance video, which was released by the Suffolk police.

And they said the axe was there for cutting tree limbs. Who cuts tree limbs with an axe?
She said it was the sixth time the store had been robbed in the four years her family has owned it.
