Gurkha dude gets robbed at knifepoint while withdrawing money from a cashpoint.

Gurkha dude, who is a black belt in karate and taekwondo, snaps the blade of the knife clean off [b]in his arm[/b] and doesn't even notice till the police metal detector picks it up!!

Suprised the police didnt try to do him for "stealing" the thiefs blade.

Disgraceful. He should be arrested for carrying a concealed weapon.

As knife wounds are so often fatal (far more so than gunshot wounds), the perp should be looking at 'Attempted Murder'.

So what do we reckon, 'Affray'? 🙄

A stern talking to from a judge and 200 hours community service, I reckon.

Plus compensation for his lost knife and any injuries sustained obviously.

Kinda like that urban legend story where the 15 (?) US marines catch the offender. Although this time it's true, and involves just one ex. member of the British Army. 😉

My favourite bit -

"Then I noticed he [the attacker] was holding the handle of the knife which I took control of and threw away."

Gotta love people like that - so humble and matter of fact. 🙂

Unless he posted about it on Facebook when he got home, then he'd be looking at three months inside.

Presumably at which point the attacker violently soiled himself. 😆

But it takes a lot of courage to be an armed robber! He will be let off 😉

I've said it before and I've said it again, they're the nicest, most hospitable blokes alive but for crying out loud, don't pi$$ them off!

The guy has to thank whatever deity that the Gurkha couldn't carry a Kukri! He'd have been carrying his head home in a Baggie!
