Thug Gets Instant Karma for Hitting OAP(Senior Citizen) on Street When Passerby KOs Him
Daily Star (U.K.) ^ | 24 MAR 2020 | Simon Green

The young man got completely floored after CCTV footage captured him fighting an elderly man

A thug who was seen hitting an OAP was dealt a swift dose of karma when a passerby knocked him out.

The shocking footage shows a pensioner hitting a young man on the pavement with a shopping bag.

He responds by punching the elderly man in the face, who struggles to stand after the blow.

As the other person gears up for a follow-up attack, a burly onlooker charges towards him.

The stocky man floors his rival with a single right hook and then stands over him yelling.

Refusing to give up, his rival gets back to his feet and the pair square up once more.

The onlooker throws two more jabs and a third right hand which sends his counterpart crashing to the ground again apparently knocked out.

It ends with other witnesses pulling away the larger man.

The shocking incident happened in the city of Rosario in the north-eastern Argentine province of Santa Fe.

More than 400,000 people have seen the clip since it was shared to Facebook.

It is unclear whether the police are investigating the incident and what caused the young man to hit the OAP and why the burly man intervened.

The footage comes after a brawl erupted in London between women.

The pair only stopped punching lumps out of one another to tell the large crowd that had gathered to film and photograph the fight that they were all “[expletive]”.

For a brief moment I thought Brit men had found their balls.

But alas, it is from Argentina.

Just for the record, “OAP” is short for “old-age pensioner”. They use the term in Ireland also.

Worth a look.

Based on the big guy who took out the bully’s stance and how he jabbed and punched the young punk, I would have to say he is a boxer of some sort.

“The shocking footage shows a pensioner hitting a young man on the pavement with a shopping bag.”

Why did the pensioner hit the ‘thug’? Looks like he started it.

Another badly written article, not explaining how the altercation really started.

Sounds like you never looked. The thug tried to grab his bag, and the OAP hit him with his bag. The thug was not of the ground. He was standing when that happened. Ahat got what he deserved. 8>)

Correct, but we don’t usually use that in the U.S. We would usually say Senior Citizen.

I liked how he moved him around with his feet and let him get up so he could fight him like a man. Alas, the punk still had no chance.
