If you’re going to rob a shop around Salford, you’d better watch out for these two old boys.
A thug burst into the Greater Manchester shop wielding a knife, but two crime-fighting pensioners stopped him in his tracks.
The amazing video footage shows the robbery unfolding second by second with cameras filming both inside and outside.
As the crook storms the shop, quick-thinking Ron Smith (78) who was walking past, grabs the door and holds it shut.
With the knifeman desperately trying to escape Robert Anderson (72) comes to back Ron up and keep the man barricaded inside.
(Watch the moment he kicks the door and falls on his arse. Brilliant.)
A group of builders manages to tackle the armed man to the ground as he leaps onto the roof of a van.
Ron, Robert, the people of Salford – we salute you. Sterling job.
