Attempted robber flees from 90-year-old laundromat owner when he fights back

90-year-old laundromat owner, George Hicks of Dayton, Ohio, turned the tables on an attempted robber when he was confronted in his office recently.

Security video captured the foiled robbery and showed a man wearing a hoodie, demanding cash from Mr. Hicks.

The unknown suspect then got quite a surprise when the elderly man refused the request and pulled out a chrome semi-automatic gun, sending the burglar running from R&J Laundromat.

In a report via KTRK ABC 13, George laughed saying, “It’s just funny. Dumb [bleep] comes in here. I’ve got the gun and he’s running.”
