Before long, one of the two juveniles grabs what looks like a mug from the counter next to Nguyen's cash register and walks toward the door.
Attempting to reason with him, Nguyen says he can take the mug but leave the coins that were inside of it.
The same kid then reaches and grabs another item before turning and trying to make off with it.
The other juvenile then jumps over the glass case toward Nguyen, who is on video grabbing some sort of sharp object by his register.
The clerk then runs at the kid and stabs him what appears to be seven times, with the juvenile audibly heard yelling: 'I'm dead! I'm dead!'. He then falls to the ground.
Nguyen said it was an 'adrenaline rush and fight or flight even thinking about it now my heart rate is a little bit elevated'.
He then calls 911 after leaving the masked crook near the front door of Smokestrom, where he can be heard telling Nguyen that this 'wasn't my idea' and asking him to 'not let me die'.
'I don't think he planned on getting stabbed that day obviously, but if you try robbing a store you are taking a risk. This is a small business obviously,' Nguyen said.

I'm not waiting to be shot before deciding it's time to defend myself.
Crooks need to learn about consequences, not the law abiding citizen.
One with seven blows.
I remember my bud whose a cop in Vancouver who told me Vietnamese gangs are experts in knives, and they literally cut you like butter. Feel good story of the day but it would be perfect it he had a shotgun because attacker is still breathing. Bummer.
Ya know it’s going down when clowns wear ski mask at the door.
Dude looks like he’s been trained to use edged weapons. He hit the correct primary targets and when he lost those he went to secondary targets (upper thought). Calm, cool and collected. Wasn’t even out of breath.
but the authorities say if you are being robbed, stay calm and don’t resist. AH...OK
Don’t mess with the Vietnamese….
The Wild West was full of men running around lost from the shambles of the Civil War. They had done enough killing in the war that they were desensitized to death of other humans. It wasn't until vigilante justice reigned supreme that the Wild West was finally tamed.
If the Law is going to sit back and not defend the people, mark my words, there is going to be a lot of dead bad guys to bury.
This Smoke Shop owner MAY not be prosecuted, the Robbers were not black enough to insure prosecution.
Who cares if he’s “asian”. Seriously, what kind of crpp headline is that?
Nguyen needs to talk to that 80 yr old shop owner in Cali about upgrading to a shotgun.
Stopping predators with a knife is risky and a lot of work.

Good for this and that but I'm going to replace the Sheffield with a Ka-Bar.
