I know the expression of our brave servicemen and servicewomen who were served in the United States Marine Corps that even though they are no longer on active duty, the lessons they learned serving our nation stays with them for life. A former U S Marine who was standing in line to be served at a Chevron gasoline station in Yuma Arizona at around 4:30am on Wednesday took action to grab a weapon from one of three would be robbers who were going to steal some money from the cashier, Then the same man proceeded to punch the same would be robber in the face which knocked him down. The second would be robber fled the gasoline station before the third would be robber could enter the gasoline station as the second would be robber ran away. The first would be robber had his weapon taken away from him and detained until the local police arrived to take him into custody. Since the incident was seen on camera, it is just a matter of time before the two would be robbers will be caught by the police. Lesson of the story is not to mess around with anyone who served in the United States Armed Forces because they know combat skills that they can use to defend themselves. The name of the brave serviceman was not released to the public.

He was very brave to face THREE robbers. It could have ended very badly.

The gentleman beat up robber. The second robber fled the scene and the third robber never entered the store since the second robber told the third robber.
