"She was yelling, 'leave me alone, stop, stop, help,' just screaming," Ron Overbey says.Those screams at 2:30 Monday morning may have otherwise gone unnoticed, but Overbey had just chased a man out of his front yard with a baseball bat for harassing a woman walking down the street, so he knew exactly what those shouts meant.
"He was trying to rape her, I mean, there was no doubt in my mind," he explains."He was pulling her shirt off he was trying to get anything he could off."
Goss said, "I went over the wall and grabbed him; snatched him off of her. Next I see Ron and he's pulling her over the wall and I'm wrestling with him on the ground and keep him there."

NOT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. “This is MY TOWN”.
Do not want to critique your use of the phraase ‘beaten to a pulp’ but in South La, this would be considered on ‘a brush with the law.’ Pulp is what comes out of a masher - think Jack LaLane and a juicing machine or a small paper mill.
that’s why I said “ and then some “
I have no problem with this.
Anyone?
Buy that man a beer!

I’d prefer a .45 hole between the eyes....
............Or a shotgun. “Step aside, Butch”.
