Media playback is unsupported on your deviceA retired bus driver has told how he fought off a would-be robber at a cash machine.

South Wales Police is appealing for information about the attack at Sainsbury's in Roath on 5 February, which was caught on CCTV. "When he demanded I hand over my money, I replied, 'You what? Do you want some of this, pal?' and I put up my guard.

Armed with a pencil the old yin should have rubbed him oot

Good on him, a few more of them want a smack in the mush. Glad he wasn't hurt. 👍💕

not all heroes are cgi - sorry though i would advise my 77 year old grandad to just hand the wallet over...the mugger could have had a blade....that being said..fkn good on yer pal.

I never go near a cash point at night too dodgy.

Lad

You mean the Welsh Police used their common sense and didn’t arrest this self-defending grandad? Here in Criminals’ Paradise England he’d have been arrested, cautioned and warned he could face a long sentence for hurting a mugger.

Go on lad.. Shame he missed the news an aal..

Go for it unc's Brilliant.

I need the postal address of it dept at the bbc and the name of his supervisor of Thomas cobb software engineer Can anybody give the postal address?

Last I heard, TheNotoriousMMA was seeking a personal trainer. This 77 year old could be the ticket 👍

sad humans around

problem these days, people would rather stab you with a knife than fight you

Some heroes don't wear tights.
