Robbery goes bad, for the robber that is as woman swings axe not money

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.

She said it was the sixth time the store had been robbed in the four years her family has owned it.
