Man mugged at an ATM returns minutes later and hits the robber with his car, takes his money back and leaves the bloodied suspect lying in the street

**SNIP**

The driver, who had his wife and young child in his white Chevy Cobalt at the time, sped off, but later realized that his debit card was still in the ATM, so he returned to look for it, thinking the robber was long gone, reported Philly.com.

But the married dad was in for a startling surprise.

Investigators say the perpetrator showed up again, this time brandishing a knife.

That is when police say the driver of the Chevy jumped into action, striking the brazen thug with his car and tossing him onto the street.

Police Lt. Dennis Rosenbaum says he doesn't expect charges against the driver.

Make the perp pay for any damages caused by his body bouncing off the car.

“The suspected mugger had managed to plunge a knife through the windshield before beyond tossed into the street”

Every article I’ve ever read there confirms that The Daily Mail is the worst-edited “newspaper” website on two continents.

Daily Mail is essentially bloggers hastily rewriting Associated Press stories. Nice gig.

Nice to see there's still a little official respect for "street justice" in Philly even after all these years since Frank Rizzo has passed on.

They failed to mention that Wells Fargo opened ten fee bearing accounts under the robber’s name.

Don’t bring a knife to a Chevy Cobalt fight.

...by selling a kidney. Preferrably, two.

Good thing the ignition key worked when it needed to. Those were the cars involved with suddenly going dead and locking up.

Good thing it was a white Chevy Cobalt. If it had been black it would have been labeled an assault car and the left would be howling for their ban.

Was the car damaged, beyond the broken windshield?

Shoulda used a Ford F-650.

Yep, and it’s a fair bet the perp will vote several times on election day, dead or alive, incarcerated or not. It’s how the Dims achieve those North Korea-like pluralities in Philly, Chicago and other cities.
