“I was walking from the local supermarket around midday and noticed three guys wrestling another on the ground. People were running away from whatever was going on, and as I got nearer I was told it was a mugging. The victim turned out to be my new neighbor. When I commanded them to stop, they came at me instead and all three were armed with knives. When I tried to reach for my blade it slipped and fell to the ground. I then pulled out my pistol, but because of the other onlookers I was reluctant to shoot the suspects. I instead aimed at a heap of building sand next to the road and as soon as they head the bang, they ran away. One even dropped his knife and phone as he ran. I had saved my neighbour’s life.”
